Santa's Sleigh

The Story

     Early november, Santa's faithful elves recieved a telegram from North Pole that he needed some assistance in preparing for this year's Christmas.  A few of his mini sleighs broke down and he needed some intelligent groups of physics 11 students to help him make some new sleighs.  One of these selected groups consisted of Fatima, Mandeep, Raman, and Pamela from LA Matheson.  As soon as these young ladies heard about the tragedy, they quickly agreed and set out to work.

     Santa had two special requests.  He was an environmentalist and asked the ladies to construct a car made out of recyable materials, preferably cardboard.  Also, for this type of sleigh to have wheels on them.  It was going to be his personal sleigh and he wanted to be prepared in case his magic broke down.  Consequently, Ms. Lai had assigned a Cardboard Race Car Project which fit in nicely.  The girls accepted the request thinking of hitting two birds with one stone.

     As the days went by, the four elves worked together as group and finally, on December 1, they were able to complete Santa's Sleigh, just in time for Christmas.
