This past week, homerooms were given an objective to protect an egg from breaking after being dropped off of the 500 building's staircase. Using given materials, students used a variety of methods to protect their egg. Some groups used the plastic bag given to them to create a parachute and slow down the fall to prevent the egg from breaking. One homeroom actually used the bag as a container and used the newspaper given to pad the egg so it could survive the plunge.
