The students in Mrs. Jennifer Hill's Grade 2 class were instructed to bring in materials from home for their egg contraptions. After collecting materials over a few days, students were able to work in small groups to design a contraption to protect their raw egg. After constructing their contraptions, the class examined all the other egg containers created. They recorded their predictions on which contraptions would work. They then took their contraptions outside to test them out. Each group climbed to the top of the playground and dropped them one at at time. Out of 8 groups, only 1 had a cracked egg. We have some pretty good engineers in this class!
