A parachute for an egg. |
However, this topic can be overlooked! Even I, just showed a video for this topic when I taught in college. It was a video of people in parachutes.
When I taught in High School, I let my students perform an activity where they have to make a parachute. This parachute should be enough to prevent an egg from breaking when dropped from the second or third floor of a building.
This is a very fun activity and your students will surely love it. I have some guidelines for this activity:
- Make sure the students use around 1 x 1 m sheet of plastic or cloth.
- The groups should be composed of 4 to 6 members.
- The parachutes should be tested using another object to prevent a mess of broken eggs.
There you have it! Enjoy!
