• Students in Mrs. O'Malley's Adapted Technology class learned about flight through the building of "Skimmer Cars." Students used cardboard to construct airfoil shaped vehicles. Their goal was to find the right combination of forces: thrust and friction, lift and gravity/weight, to make their cars travel down the hallway the furthest. All students had great success with distances reaching over 60 feet! The longest distance was achieved by Miranda VanBuren - 99 feet!
