Mrs. Boomer's Annual Egg Drop
Today was the Annual Egg Drop in Mrs. Boomer's sixth grade science class at Iroquois Middle School in West Irodequoit, New York. Here is a picture of my raw egg container, The Cooper Vault:
The Cooper Vault was well designed, but I did lose one point because it was one millimeter over 24 centimeters. It was still the most creative egg container in the class, if you ask me. Here is how the raw egg was cradled in the Cooper Vault:
It was a beautiful day today - it got all the way into the 70's - I wore shorts to school. At 11:45, we began to drop the eggs out of a third floor window.
After my group all dropped their eggs, we came downstairs to retrieve our packages.
Mrs. Boomer didn't let us open up our containers until we got back up to the classroom. Only four people in our class had eggs that did not survive. My egg - cradled in the air-tight Cooper Vault - was golden:
In a month or so, we're going to set off rockets in Mrs. Boomer's class (not in the classroom, outside). I wonder if an egg could survive a rocket ride...

The outer shell is made up of foam board - the stuff that you use to mount posters and stuff. We probably should try it from higher up! Thanks for the comments & hope you check back often for updates!
