What is the challenge?

Their task is to design and build a model of an amusement park ride. They will test the ride in several ways before presenting the final version to the whole class! In the presentation, students will have the additional challenge of using a real egg with their ride model. Can they make a braking system? Will the ride protect its passengers? Will the egg withstand the fall? All fantastic questions to answer in this very engaging challenge. It’s a fantastic opportunity for collaborative work and constant re-designing!
