Kids had a lot of FUN :-) while building 1) Tipping Platform and 2) Weight Machine.
(Team of Shivan and Chaitanya came up with an innovative solution to keep the platform more stable, we need to check RULEs if it is allowed or not.)

Team Work:

Research Project:
Our team need to partner with a senior citizen (60+), understand their needs and come up with an idea to solve one of their problem.
Each Team member should
1) Talk to their grand parents, seniors in our community, visit senior center
Parents: Please help them to get in touch with seniors in our community. Following is format of request we came up with:
As part of Lego Robotics Club I am working on a research project, as part of the research I wan to identifying needs of senior citizens and come up with innovative ideas to meet some of their needs. Would you mind talking with me and my team?
Please bring a list of seniors you will be meeting this week, note down how you know them.
Next week we will discuss and choose one or two senior citizen from the list (who may be willing to partner with us) and work with them.
