Egg Contraption Experiment

Method:

We made a contraption to save the

egg from breaking.
Hypothesis:

Our egg should survive when it is

surrounded by bubble rap and
cotton and our A2 paper parachute
should slow it down. Results:

Question:
PYP Science skills The parachute was a big help
a. Observe carefully in order to gather

How will our egg survive when we

data
to the egg.
b. Use a variety of instruments and
throw it from a high window? tools to measure data accurately

c. Use scientific vocabulary to explain

their observations and experiences

d. Identify or generate a question or

What we know at first:
problem to be explored

e. Plan and carry out systematic
investigations, manipulating variables
as necessary
f. Make and test predictions
We know that the parachute would help
the egg glide and the cotton balls and
bubble wrap should help with the impact.

Conclusions: The egg survives mainly

because of the parachute glides it and
slows the egg down.
