Mrs. Jacks's students recently wrapped up their Newton's laws of motion unit with an exciting egg drop challenge! 🥚 The students were tasked with building a contraption that would safely protect an egg from cracking when dropped from various heights.
The students applied their understanding of Newton's laws to design and construct creative and innovative solutions. Some used bubble wrap, others used foam, and some even used shopping sacks for parachutes.
