For a STEAM lesson, the 5th Graders did an Egg Drop activity. The groups found many natural materials to prevent a raw egg from breaking when they drop the container from the first floor to the ground floor. Discussions included the concepts of collision, force, inertia, energy, etc. The egg of the group that used soil to cushion it did not break. The egg of the other group that used leaves and twigs broke.
