We have been studying gravity and air resistance in science. Today we put our knowledge to the test with an egg drop. Students studied videos of parachute drops to gather information on how a parachute works. They then applied our knowledge of gravity and air resistance to design their own parachute and platform to protect an egg dropped from the top of the school. You can tell from the students' expressions which designs were successful and which were not!
