Egg+Drop

Requirements: 1) Build an egg drop in which The egg will not break or fall out. 2) You only get 60 Straws a day. 3) I need to save the egg from a 15 feet drop 4) I get 1 glue stick a day. 5) I get 1 glue gun 6) I do not get the egg until i drop it.

Investigate: We investigated different questions about the egg drop such as how do you make an egg drop with straws? Then we went to different website resources and found the information we needed to create the egg drop.

Plan: we drew different designs of our egg drop and thoughtfully chose a good one. we saw the pros and cons of the three designs and chose the third.

Create: We listed safety tips such as try not to burn yourself, and started to create our structure. While we were building our structure we troubleshooted our plan and finished.

Evaluate: Our design was unsuccessful, however we did test it beforehand. We will improve our solution next time.

Was your design successful? No, our design was not successful.

How could you improve your solution? We can build a straw wall around the boat structure for more stability of the egg. We will glue a fort around the structure so it can break the fall. What part of your design would you again? We will use the shape and the thickness of the straws again because those two worked well.
