          Today, we are in the classroom. Will and Sean are working on making a gift for one of our mentors that help out. Morgan and Matt are updating the website so you guys can keep up with what we are doing. On Saturday we worked on our car and fixed things that needed to be fix. We are happy to say that it was our wires that were smoking instead of our motor controller so we don't have to pay for a new motor controller. Dani, Julie, and Sofia are working on fixing the power point to see if their are any mistakes.

          Today we are in the classroom. Will and Corbin are selling snacks from our snack cart to the second graders for their AR party, and Dani and Julie are counting the money earned. Morgan is going around the classroom raking pictures to upload on the website, and Sean and Matt are organizing tools. Sadie is delivering our new materials to the shop. We plan on meeting tomorrow on Saturday to fix the problem with our car smoking. If all goes well, we might be able to have driver and pusher qualifications next week, so that we can prepare for the Grissom race.

          Today, we are in the classroom. Julie and Dani are organizing our snack cart. Corbin and Sadie are working on fixing the script for the upcoming Grissom race. Sean, Morgan, and Matt are counting money. We plan on changing the gear change for the upcoming race, because the new Grissom track is flatter than the Jemison one, which allows us to go further with a higher gear ratio for ninety minutes. We hope that we can do driver and pusher qualifications soon so that we can get ready for the race. We also plan on making some changes to our video presentation.

Riddle of the Day: Three lives have I. Gentle enough to soothe the skin, Light enough to caress the sky, Hard enough to crack rocks. What am I?

Sofia and Dani are working on the driver times to figure out how much each driver is going to be driving for the Grissom race. Morgan is uploading recent pictures that we took to the website. Matt is working on revising the blog for grammatical errors. We plan to have a practice on Saturday to fix our car so that we can do driver and pusher qualifications.

            Today, we are in the shop discussing race day and how it went. We got first in our presentation and third overall. We first went to the gym to listen to the safety briefing. Then we went to the qualifying rave and finished in fourth, which means we started in fourth. We then participated in the main race, finishing in fourth. After the race was over we put everything back in the trailer and went into the gym until it was time to be interviewed. The interviewers asked us about Greenpower and our team. After everything was done we received our scores. We are happy with our place but know we can do better, and will strive to do so.
