Monday 11th Febraury - Egg Drop Challenge

Today we had a terrific day. We watched a You Tube clip called 'Egg Drop Challenge'. In it 5 primary schools in America had to design creations that would protect an egg that was dropped from a very high height. There were some cool designs and we enjoyed watching the eggs fall to see which ones would not break and which ones did. You can see the clip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKQntlsJ_KQ - We then got into groups and designed and created our own egg protectors. Once they were made we dropped them from the fort. All of the eggs managed to survive the fall. Mr Powell climbed even higher to drop them and they all still survided. It was great fun. Check out the pics.
