Peter is in the FLL at Middle school level.
He's in 8th grade, this is a perfect union of programming and building
things so it 'hits the spot' for him.
They allow as many people as can fit around the table but all save two must
stay behind a line taped out on the floor.
Some of the teams tag out and let sets of two do specific parts of the
challenge, they tend to get higher scores.
Hopefully Peter will sway the guys to this kind of thinking, he's the team
captain and the one who is showing the other guys how to program.
They have some down time until after Christmas, they will have to get right
into it on 12/26 if they intend to do well.
