Pitsco Education Mousetrao Vehicles - Getting Started Package provides an easy way for 30 students to get the mousetrap vehicle activity rolling in your classroom. Students experience simple machines and other physics principles through the design and construction of a vehicle powered only by an ordinary mousetrap.
Requires ruler, hobby knife, wire cutter, and a drill or Dremel tool, sold separately.
Pitsco Education Mousetrap Vehicles is a complete start-to-finish design activity. The student follows the design process and sees direct applications of science and technology as he or she designs and builds a mousetrap-powered vehicle and competes with classmates to design the fastest car or the car that goes the farthest. Each kit includes a mousetrap, balsa wood, four CDs (for wheels), CD spacers, thrust washers, brass tubing, string, and building instructions.
Requires white glue, ruler, hobby knife, wire cutter, and a drill or Dremel tool, sold separately.
Quickly set up and race in the classroom with the EZ Track Raceway. The track comes with 20 one-meter high-strength PVC sections that easily slide together with joints that slightly elevate the track off the ground. Use the 20 sections to create a dual-lane setup or one long lane to race down. Race dragsters, mousetrap vehicles, bottle racers, solar cars, and more. When the racing is finished, the track quickly disassembles and can be stacked for storage. Compatible with the EZ Start Raceway, Impulse G3 Race System, and more.
