Egg Drop at Dunsmuir Elementary School

Teaching the students at Dunsmuir Elementary about physics and engineering while enjoying a fun Easter event, all the children each designed a protected device to hopefully keep an egg from breaking when dropped 65 feet. In addition, all the children participated in creating unusual and unique devices that were tested out on April 7th. 

Jack Crawford from A Cut Above Tree Service in Mt Shasta donated his time and one of their lift trucks to drop the protected eggs from a height of 65 feet. 

Surprisingly, many of the youngsters, a total of 90 from kindergarten and up to 8th grade, had been successful.
