Gifted Class executes "The Egg Drop Experiment"
Gifted students at Henderson finished their recent unit by carrying out their egg drop experiments. Students drew out a plan of how they would construct a container to protect a raw egg when dropped from a high place. When the three eggs were dropped from the "snail" on the school's playground, Jake's, unfortunately, didn't survive. The other two remaining eggs were taken by Ms. Kearley to the football stadium across town and dropped off the back of the stands at the football stadium. Now that's a high place! (The video above shows Nijah and Malachi's eggs being dropped from the back of the stadium.) Of the remaining two eggs, Nijah's didn't make it. Congratulations to Malachi for constructing the only surviving egg container! Good job to all my guys!
