Mark Michaud, a Project Adventure teacher from Newtown Middle School in CT has a hand in creating a trebuchet...a midieval military device for tossing heavy loads. Michaud and others used the device to offer up the opportunity to community members to toss pumpkins for charity.
And of course, like any good PA educator, Michaud and students combined math, physics and history with active learning to create, test and now figure out a real life application for thier trebuchet.
