Every year, fifth grade teacher, Mr. Zimmer, invites fifth graders to develop their invention skills to create a protective device to keep an egg safe as it is thrown off the back of the Milaca Football Stadium to fall to the ground. Fourth graders are always invited to begin the early planning. There were other classes who joined in the fun too!

So exciting to be thinking about our future car designers and seat belt engineers!! When fifth graders return to their classrooms, they graph the results from the different rooms. It is fun to see the connections and their scientific work!
