Fort Sam Houston Elementary School was represented Saturday at the First Lego League Curiosity Division Championships by our very own team, Chicken Legs. Eshan Khan, Dillon DeMay, Brynnlee Beckstrom, and Anthony Barker, all 4th graders, competed along with 58 teams made up of 4th-8th graders from around south Texas. Each team researched a real-world problem about space travel and were challenged to develop an innovative solution for their team’s problem. The Chicken Legs researched the effect of the lack of gravity on the human body. They also designed, built, and programmed a robot using LEGO Mindstorm technology to compete on a table-top playing field. Thanks Laura Albasini
