Ranken Robots Day 2

One of the "perks" of middle school camp is getting to eat free lunch with the kids. Today's menu was a typical school-cafeteria lunch:  macaroni and cheese with chicken nuggets...pretty tasteless, in my opinion, but the kids really loved it, judging by the way they all went back for seconds. Yesterday was sloppy Joe's and Friday is hot dogs. I can't imagine what they'll serve us on Wednesday and Thursday. Today the kids learned how to use sensors to make their robots drive in a square. It was really cool when we put all the robots on the table at the same time and had them move to the music of the Harlem Shuffle. Looked almost like New York City's Rockettes.
