Kindergarten Egg Drop Mrs. Barbara Kruming Johnson STEM Magnet March 2010

Getting Started  The students worked in teams of 4 to 5.  They brainstormed ideas for materials that would keep their eggs safe upon landing.  Five materials were selected: 1. Frosting 2. Packing Peanuts 3. Cotton Balls 4. Paper Towels 5. Real Popcorn

Objectives Procedure At the end of this project the students will have:  Used the Engineering by Design Process to create a space craft that will keep an egg safe after it is launched.  Brainstormed, predicted, and evaluated their construction based on the results of the egg drop. The groups will design a space craft from two plastic tubs. The variable will be the type of material which they select to wrap around the eggs.

Team 1 decided to shelter their egg in frosting.  We packed our space ship with chocolate frosting. It smelled really good! We hoped that it would keep our egg from breaking.

After we packed the frosting around our egg, we sealed the space ship with clear packing tape.

Team II chose packing peanuts to put around their egg.

Team III decided to put cotton balls in their egg’s space ship. This cotton is really soft.

Team IV used crumpled up paper towels to put around their egg.

Team V picked real popcorn to fill up their space ship.

Here are all five of our space ships ready for take-off and landing!

One student elected to construct a space ship of his own design at home. Is my egg going to be safe in my space ship?

Next we approached the launch/landing site.

The teams carefully prepare their crafts for launch.

READY! 5,4,3,2,1 - LAUNCH!

Data  Two of the space ships did not keep their egg cargo safe!  The egg in the frosting ship cracked a little bit on one end.  The cotton ball egg completely broke!

CONCLUSIONS  We designed three space ships that met our objective of protecting the egg cargo.  Two of our space ship designs failed to protect the egg cargo.  We plan to redesign the two that failed to see if we can be successful next time!
