I received lots of sweet videos of how God made you special! They made my heart very happy. Thank you for sharing! You are all so special and so LOVED. 💛
Check out some of these cute round bird drawings!
And shout out to Aliyah for making this awesome bird's nest last week! Super cool!
Do you remember this song called I Know a Chicken that we used to sing at preschool? It was one of my favorites. We used to sing and dance to this song with shaker eggs. Do you have a shaker egg you could use? Or could you make one? At school, our shaker eggs were made out of plastic Easter eggs filled with dried beans. How could you create a shaker egg?
Ok engineers, are you ready for a building challenge? What is an engineer? Are you an engineer? An engineer is someone who designs and builds things! Yes, you are an engineer!
We are going to start this engineering project with a story called Egg Drop. At the end of the story, the egg needs some help! It needs YOUR help! Are you up for the challenge? (Parents, stop the video at 1:57 if you can! This is the best place to stop the story for this challenge so that we can change the outcome for the egg!)
Oh no! The egg is falling! The egg needs you to design and build something that will protect it so that when it falls to the ground, it won't break!
Do you remember our creation cycle?
Today we will think of an idea and plan our project! Get out your notebook or some graph paper for your plan! Draw the egg on your plan. Now think of materials you could use to protect the egg from breaking as it is falling! Could you put the egg in something? Wrap something around it? Put something squishy on the ground to catch it? Hmm...what will you design for your egg? Once you have your idea, add it to your plan!
Tomorrow we will build it and test your design!
Have a great day engineers!
