We are team Lightning bolts The Olympic Torch: One of the four challenges from the STEAM Olympics was to make a unique torch with a simple circuit that represents our team the lightning bolts. At first we decided to make a pentagon base at the bottom of our cardboard square. Then, we made a cradle out of graph paper to hold the battery and light which we lit up to acknowledge the flames on a olympic torch. Soon enough, we decorated the cardboard square with lightning bolts. We were so ahead we didn’t focus much on the decoration. The next day, we realized that everyone was going to vote so we had to decorate it more. Our plan was to use yellow play-doh to make a lighting bolt which went around the battery and covered the red led light so that the light shown through. Eventually, it was time for all the teams to vote though our team didn’t have the best luck instead we ended up getting three points and we got third place. Overall, we had a great time and it was a fascinating challenge we hope we have better luck next challenge. Sincerely, Zoe, Sarah, and Caleb
