Egg-o-nauts
5th grade students had a blast
creating rockets for their Egg-o-naut
Launch project. Each student
designed and constructed a rocket
with an egg inside with the goal of
create a module that would keep the
egg intact. Pictured, right: LES 5th
grade teachers launched the rockets
from the roof. After landing, the
students looked inside to see if their
rockets did the job of keeping their
egg safe upon impact.
