INQUIRY!!!

Remember.. It is how science is done not just

doing science.

Your Job

Design an inquiry lesson based on newton's laws of motion1. Law of inertia2. F=MA3. Action reaction

Your Objective

Launch an egg into the air to a minimum height of 40 feet. And get it safely to ground without breaking the egg

You may work alone or with one other person

What is Expected

The egg will be raw. No rockets or hazardous propellants Explained thoroughly using Newton's 3 laws A written narrative Can be as simple or as elaborate as you

would like. Must easily be taken into and out of the

school You may not touch the egg landing…no

gloves, mitts

So, for today

Begin your design. Draw possible designs of your launch/landing

device Work with what you know about Newton’s

laws to begin to hypothesize applications to your launch and landing of the egg

More height with a successful landing will give you bonus points.

Begin describing the steps of inquiry as it relates to the experiment

What else…

You will turn in a written report with a

Hypothesis, research question, some research on eggs and egg activities along with an objective, materials, procedures, and a conclusion on why it did or did not work

Have fun.

This activity will be performed one week from today.
