Lila F. – LIS GEAR Journalist
Today we are going to Lubbock because today is the kick-off. It is at Texas Tech University. I love the Red Raiders! Mrs.Carr has chose me and Mayce to write on the NEO’s. Gabbi and Layce are going to take pictures with an awesome camera! O.K,. we are getting off the bus Now we are in the conference room. We just watched a movie. They just told us what our competition was going to be and it looks really hard!! There is this safety zone where the robot can’t pass it until he lifts it up or we lose penalty points.
Now for our next task we have a box of gum-drops and a package of toothpicks, and we have to build something out of it!!!! Also we have to make it the strongest if we want it to survive the ball of fury. The figure has to be strong enough to not get torn down by the baseball. We are going to build the figure. We came up with some pretty good ideas!!! Some people wanted to build a box, then the Texas Tech sign. There are too many ideas so I’m not going to list all of them! Sorry!!! I think we may have a shot at most disorganize. .Now for the moment you all have been waiting for the judging time!
I am very surprised we did not win anything because I think we did very good!!! But one of the judges called out Levelland and we got so excited but it wasn’t our school it was Middle School!!!
Well I guess I better go so bye!!
