Triton Students Race Into Science
By DONNA BURROUGHS,

BOURBON — Students in Cathy Strycker’s third grade class at Triton Elementary School held races with the vehicles that they designed using the scientific method.
Jack Carpenter, Triton’s elementary physical education teacher, conducted the experimentation phase of this project by setting up race brackets for students. Each person raced their vehicle to find the fastest one.
Everyone was a great sport and showed Trojan pride! Top performing vehicles were Evan Amor, Dannon Titus and Nate Schuler. Every student still came out a winner by learning about the scientific method, how to analyze, draw conclusions with their outcomes and have fun. We really appreciated Mr. Carpenter incorporating science in PE too!
