Grade 4 Egg Drop!
We had a beautiful day for our egg drop on Tuesday. The goal was to build a container so that BOTH eggs survived! We had many students who accomplished this. These students received a button and are pictured with their class below. Everyone who participated also received a certificate. Egg McMuffins were enjoyed by all who participated the day after. An egg-ceptionally good time was had by all!
