How did your egg drop plan go? Are you ready to build your plan? What materials will you use? I'm going to list out some of my ideas in case you get stuck and need some help!
You could use...
newspaper
cushions
pillows
boxes
napkins
plastic bags
tape
straws
feathers
stuffing
foam peanuts
cotton balls
marshmallows
sponges
What will you use to protect (keep safe) your egg from the drop? Your goal is to be able to drop it without it breaking! Ready to build? Go!
Here is the design I created!
Once you are finished creating your egg drop design, it's time to test it out! Ask your mom or dad to hold your egg with all of it's protection high above their heads. Now count down with me...

10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Drop!
What happened? Did your egg break? Get out your notebook and draw your observation of your egg! Remember, an observation is looking closely and thinking about what you see! Do you see any cracks?
If it didn't break or crack, you did it!
If it broke or cracked, it's time to improve your plan! Improve means to make your plan better! What could you change to make your design better?
Since we just counted down from 10 to test your egg drop, let's end with a song that will teach you to countdown from 20!
