This morning we didn’t have nearly as many problems getting out of bed since we got much closer to an average amount of sleep. We piled into the vans for yet another 7:30 am practice session (yes, i know, it’s getting old.) We then watched a collaborative presentation by a few of the groups who have come to Botball from overseas, which was very interesting. The following presentation was on the creation of educational but fun video games. Apparently, kids are more likely to study when studying means playing a computer game. Personally, I was shocked.
When it was time for lunch break, we headed to a cute sandwich place called Which Wich? It has a unique system for ordering sandwiches: you pick up a bag, color in the bubbles of the toppings you’d like, and they make it for you! Not only is the ordering process fun with coloring involved, the sandwiches are delicious.
We’ve just finished the second practice round of the day and the final practice round of Botball Nationals 2008! Now we’re just waiting to be called to the tables and begin the head-to-head round… wish us luck!
