  EGG DROP!!

For our Egg Drop in class today, we started out with 1 regular sized raw egg and 20 imaginary points to spend on supplies and materials for the egg drop.
  With our 20 points we spent 13 points on:
- 4 huge pieces of duck tape
- a bundle of string
- 1 small Styrofoam cup
- and a large bundle of toilet paper

We then waited it out a bit and spent 7 more points on:
- 4 more giant pieces of duck tape
- a handful of regular sized purple printer paper and envelopes
- and 1 plastic bag

We then had 2 imaginary points left over and had to throw them away.. ) ;

OUR EGG SURVIVED THE EGG DROP!!!
Ella and Dounya smiling with excitement when we opened up our creation to find Eggington alive and well
 (we had to drop our egg off the second story balcony of the communications building onto a cement pathway)

We then had to name out precious little egg since he managed to survive. We named him:
                                                             EGGINGTON
(and he loved his name)

Eggington's tucked in tight and ready for flight!
