Here are a few more scenes from our 5th grade Egg Drop event held this afternoon. Congratulations to the students whose egg survived the drops from 10 feet, 30 feet and 50 feet, and a BIG thank you to the members of the AEP crew who came out and helped with the event. We couldn't do it without you!!
The Egg Drop event for 5th graders was held this afternoon. The project involved 5th graders building containers that would keep an egg safe when dropped from different heights. With help from members of the AEP crew, the eggs were dropped from heights of 10 feet, 30 feet and 50 feet. The project helps the students learn about force, gravity, energy and air resistance.
UPDATE!!!! THEY WILL BE IN TOWN CLOSER TO 6 P.M. Come on out and welcome our track state champs home in style!!
Remember this fun event to help keep the kids busy this summer.
