It was a very active double class today! We went outside and started by launching Eggbert the egg in his parachute in six feet, eight feet, and 10 feet drops. He survived the flights. Then we played badminton and moved to a few Danny Go! videos. Then we dropped Remington's egg Tim in his crate outside from several heights. Tim survived six feet, eight feet and 10 feet drops. He also survived 20 feet and 29 feet throws by Remington. We had the measuring tape and measured the distances. Remington's design was successful and protected Tim the egg.
