Technology Challenge!

We have a challenge going in D1 at the moment - an 'Egg Drop' challenge! The children were asked to design a way to drop an egg from the top of the playground...without it breaking!

Noah did some work at home and came back with this amazing looking 'triangle box'. He dropped it from the playground... (sorry - the camera is turned sideways!)





...and now let's look inside...

Looking good so far...

Let's get a close up...

Ta da! One whole egg! No cracks in sight! Well done Noah and Dad!
Noah's design included a 'seatbelt' for the egg so that it didn't bounce around and lots of soft padding inside a very strong box made with sticks and tape. Clever!
