So this is the first run of these Lingo Sheets right before week two! Feel free to print them and/or give me feedback! I'd love to edit them and put anything else you guys feel is important! Feel free to edit them yourselves if you see something wrong!

All terms come from www.froggypedia.com

thankyou!!!


This is an awesome job and a great resource! Thank you for making it!


Two suggestions I have:
(My additions non-italicized.)

When describing FRC, I feel that it should be mentioned that this all takes place within a 6.5 week period.

FRC is a program where high school students around the globe come together each year to design and build a robot in
6 1/2 weeks that plays a specific game. The game changes each year. The 2011 game is FIRST LOGO MOTION.


The explanation of the pits doesn't cover all that goes on. Very rarely are the robots just sitting there.

Pit(s) - This is where the robots are put
and/or worked on while waiting for matches.


Oh, after looking again, might want to considering explaining "seed". I know it confused me the first time I heard it.


Just my $0.02. Take it as you see fit.

Once again, amazing job!
