FSA CELEBRATES GEORGIA STEM DAY WITH STEM ACTIVITIES AND SUMOBOTS ON MAY 3RD

Over the course of the year, FSA Robotics Club students learned building and programming robots to attend competitions.  Since now all the robotic competions are over, we have decided to do our own at our school. We will do our first annual sumobot competition on Georgia STEM Day. During Sumobot competition, two self-controlled robots are placed in a ring. The robots try to avoid falling out or avoid being pushed out by the opponent robot. The first robot that touches outside of the ring loses the round. The first robot to win two rounds, wins the match. Different robots compete one-on-one against each other throughout the contest. The robot that wins the most matches wins the contest. The Sumobot competition will be held at the school cafateria on May 3rd, Georgia STEM Day and the winners will be awarded with gift cards and other suprises. Good luck to all students.

What is Georgia STEM Day?
The Georgia Statewide STEM Day (May 3rd) will be a day for schools, students, teachers, and companies to raise awareness, celebrate and engage in activities involving science, technology, engineering and math!
