| Preparing the egg and cup! |
 |
| Ready, Set,....Drop! |
My fourth graders have been learning about types of energy (potential, kinetic, thermal, etc.) and so to finish up our unit on the conservation of energy, we did an egg drop lab! The students worked through the scientific method to develop what they thought would be a good cup protection for their egg to successfully drop 1 meter without breaking. And after experimentation…. two of the three eggs successfully survived! They finished up their lab sheets with pictures of the changes that occurred in types of energy with the lab groups. All in all a wonderful and fun learning experience.
