Twin Falls Middle School students Whitney Blomquist, Forrest Golic, Logan Roy and Nathan Blazevich get ready to launch their mousetrap-powered cars outside their seventh-grade science classroom. Their cars, built using everyday objects, traveled the farthest in a class competition that capped a unit on forces of motion, laws of physics and the design process. Their teacher is Dawn Frearson.
