Veggie Wednesday!

Happy National Eat Your Vegetables Day! I hope you all ate some greens today. 

Today's activity was Human Pictionary, a game where the campers were divided into teams and then chose a card with an object on it. The team would then try to create the object with their bodies and the other teams were tasked with guessing what the object was. If a team guess correctly within a minute, the team gets a point. Likewise, if the team making the object gets another team to guess what they are making within a minute, they get a point. The team that gets the most points wins the favorite candy of each of its members. The teams were super creative with their creation of objects. The Weirdos, composed of Alexa, Belle, Cassandra, Emma, Katrina, Marisol, and Renee, won the challenge and received candy upon going back into the Ice Box.
Once the girls were situated and with snacks, Nicole went over NXT/EV3 programming and the projects available. Before the girls jumped into their builds, Michelle and Abby gave a very interesting presentation for Project Neo, a First Robotics Competition team here in Las Cruces. The girls got information packets and then set to work on their own projects. We listened to music the girls requested on YouTube while they worked. 
About ten minutes before 11, Brittany gave a presentation to the girls about making mistakes. 
The girls had about half an hour to work on their projects before lunch. What was lunch you ask? Pizza!! We had a nice selection of pizza and chips. The girls ate up most of the pizza and then went back to work. They had an open build for AppInventor. The apps look amazing, girls! It was all-in-all a very good, peaceful day. Can't wait for tomorrow! Don't forget to bring money for the field trip to Barnes & Noble. 






Blog Prompt: If you could shape-shift into any object, what would it be? (No animals :P)



Analyssa: I would love to be able to shape-shift into water. If I could shape-shift into water, I could change into any form of the compound, from ice to water vapor to rain. If I were able to do this, I could move virtually anywhere and still be able to survive.

Brittany: I would shape-shift into a computer, that way I'd still be able to do the things I love, like surfing the web and watching funny YouTube videos!
