Egg Drop Collision Lab!
In science, Fourth Graders designed a container for an egg
that would be dropped from a ladder. They created their design from various
packing materials; boxes, bubble wrap, plastic bags, and balloons.
Students watched as their egg was dropped- and anxiously opened it to see
if the egg survived the drop without being cracked. Almost all of them
survived! We have some future engineers in our class!
It Survived!
Parachute!
Balloons helped!
Another parachute with straws as an aid to help absorb the energy of the fall!
oops....
Gliding safely to the ground!
It worked!
Building our egg containers....
More tape and bubble wrap!
