Egg Drop Activity

Egg Drop Activity was one of my favorite experience that I was excited to explore in this class. while working on this activity, I had a fun time to cooperate with my classmate, Briana to try different ways to protect the egg.

I learned from my peers that she was very patient to cover the egg by using the bubble wrap, tape, and tissue papers.

At that moment, I learned that I needed to add more bubble wraps, and tissue papers while building egg carrier. In addition, I wished I had a chance to try this experience by using different materials to protect the egg from breaking from the high place. When the egg was not survived when it was dropped, I realized that I needed to add more layers to the egg because layering things would offer the protection for the raw egg from the high place. My first idea was I planned to use the thick cardboard to make the box for the raw egg, however I changed my mind after discussing with my peer. The knowledge that I brought to this activity that supported my work on designing the protection for the egg was the more layering the more protection the egg may
