Success Egg Drop Project Design with Paper Only ![]() All our egg drop projects were performed at about 15 to 20 feet height level. Depending on the students, teachers can define the height up to 20 feet or even higher. For a quick and easy project, kids can drop the egg at 3 feet. Teacher can also set design restrains on the total weight or the total cost of the materials each design uses.Īnother easy parameter that can change the project difficulty level is the height at which to drop the egg. Last year we limited the materials to paper and straw. One year we set the materials allowed to straws and tape only. ![]() ![]() Teacher can adjust the project difficulty level by setting different success criteria and design restrains.įor example, teachers can set limits on materials students can use. The beauty of the egg drop project is no matter the age and skill level, students can learn and enjoy the project. ![]() How to Adapt the Egg Drop Challenge to Different Grade Levels Through the project, students learn engineering design process, physics, material science, and if it is a team project, team work. The basic idea is to design and build a container to hold a raw egg that can protect the egg from breaking when dropped from certain height. Egg Drop challenge is a project-based STEM challenge that can be adapted to all ages, from elementary to high school.
