About our team: This year, the Division 1 team from The Academy of 21st Century Learning chose to solve the Vehicle Problem, in which they built a pirate-themed vehicle with a unique propulsion system. Their budget was $145. The Ice Cream Pirates built a ship to overcome the evil Kraken Dazs as it journeyed across the “seven C’s” of creativity, courage, chocolate sauce, and more! The Division 2 team chose the Structure Problem. They built a balsa wood structure that could weigh no more than 15 grams and must stand at least 8 inches tall. The goal of the structure was to hold hundreds of pounds of pressure. The Academy’s structure is currently able to sustain 325 pounds. The team is working towards 500 pounds! They also wrote and performed a skit known as the Perfectly-Imperfect Magicians, a know-it-all cowboy magician and her over qualified assistant! Jen Rafael [email protected] Mobile: 916-233-8842
