Egg Drop!

 We were learning about Newton's first  law Inertia Equipment we use was.....

1 cup

Water

A flat tray or plate                                                         Go to the team Tora site to learn more!

Egg                                                                                                The site

1 cardboard toilet paper role.

CAN YOU GET THE EGG IN THE WATER?

We filled up the cup of water and placed the plate on top then using the toilet paper roll to place above it leaving the egg on top of the of the toilet roll. I placed my hand i couple of centimetres away from the cup and then my arm started to feel tense put i went for it and knocked the egg into the water after that i was worried there was a chick inside of the egg and i wiped the egg and did the whole thing over again.


Newton's First Law, once the egg was moving, it didn't want to stop. The container of water interrupted the egg's fall, providing a safe place for the egg to stop moving so you could recover it unbroken. The gravity-pushed egg caused the water to splash out.

We were learning about..Newton's first law of motion
I found it easy to... Set it all up.
I found it hard to... Make sure the egg was going to land into the right.
I enjoyed...Watching the egg grow large as it plopped into the water.
Next time i will... Try stay more focused and keep my hands steady.

M&Ms Experiment!

Can you bet an ALL Black???

Read all about the British engineer who broke the Guinness World record for stacking M&M's. British engineer breaks Guinness World Record

Now watch the Seven Sharp video where the Māori All Blacks give it a go... Are they successful?

Now, give it a go!

We were learning about Newton's law of motion by stacking M&Ms and rocks of different shapes and sizes. The highest someone got up to was five by a British Engineer AND a maori ALL black in science only TWO people got to 4 M&Ms the task is harder than you think!

We were learning about... Newtons law of motion
I found it easy to... Eat the M&Ms
I found it hard to... Stack the M&Ms
I enjoyed... Eating the M&Ms
Next time i will... Try stacking the M&Ms slower

  • I found it easy to... Research about the different floods that have happened in new zealand.
  • I found it hard to... Get the right rich words and to get all the details
  • I enjoyed... Making My emergency kit.
  • Next time I will...  add more things to my get and add more richer words.
