3rd grade visits Auburn Universty

The Engineering Department at Auburn University planned several learning activities for our large group of 3rd graders.  We were challenged in architecture by attempting to build the largest free standing structure of marshmallows and spaghetti noodles.  (And it had to stand for 2 minutes!!)  Then we had a variety of materials for our Egg Drop.  The challenge was to not crack the egg when dropped from the 2nd floor!  Here are some pictures of our day:






 
And then the EGG DROP challenge:
