This week we conducted an experiment with boiled eggs.
First we predicted which materials would be the best to protect the eggs from a fall – all of the children completed a sheet and managed to write why they thought that material would be the best.
We then got into small groups and used our chosen material to wrap and protect the egg… We had to work together and be very careful not to crack our egg in the process (unfortunately 2 were!)
Finally we put our eggs safely into a bag and did the egg drop test. We all dropped our eggs from the same height so it was fair.
We all worked together, made predictions and celebrated the team that had the egg with the least amount of damage. Well done, Reception class!
Take a look at the videos below.
