Snapping ahead
Trinity students design cars out of mousetraps
Published Friday, April 18, 2008
Students in Ryan Walker’s middle school physics class put their studies to work Thursday morning in the school’s gym. Students constructed small vehicles out of a variety of items. The one requirement was a mousetrap. Some students put mousetraps on top of larger rat trap, to create the base of a car. CDs serve as wheels and a pencil and string help start the engine. Energy from the trap’s spring bar is used to power the little vehicle.

No comments! This would have been the perfect place to write
compliments for young people who are doing well. Good job young people and with the inspirations of a good teacher and hard work you will succeed. Its a shame that more do not
recognize your efforts.It seems that bad deeds bring more responses.
