Mrs. Nussbaum's 7th grade students designed parachutes for toy army men, investigating how different variables affected air resistance and the time it took to fall.
Both 7th grade classes also had to create a container with certain requirements to hold an egg. The object was to create a container that would protect the egg from the force of impact of the fall. The containers were then dropped from a 2nd floor window, unwrapped and checked to see if the egg was still intact.
