Annual Egg drop competition

Last Friday we enjoyed our second Structural Challenge of the year in our annual Egg Drop Competition. We were joined by the grade 3′s who had spent the week working on their protective cases for their egg. Our students were in groups of 2-3, given a list of possible materials and their cost and challenged to make a protective case for their egg with less then $10 worth of expenditures. Some of the designs they came up with in their 30 minute time limit were very creative. At the end of the day, when we dropped their protective egg creation from our second story classroom window, all but two groups unwrapped a successfully preserved egg. Congratulations!
Enjoy our collage of highlights.
