This presentation walks students through the Easter egg drop design and technology activity, where they will use their knowledge of engineering, materials and construction to keep an egg in one piece.
Describe how forces and the properties of materials affect function in a product or system
Explore needs or opportunities for designing, and test materials, components, tools, equipment and processes needed to create designed solutions
Investigate how forces and the properties of materials affect the behaviour of a product or system
Investigate the suitability of materials, systems, components, tools and equipment for a range of purposes
Investigate how forces and the properties of materials affect the behaviour of a designed solution
Investigate the suitability of materials, systems, components, tools and equipment for a range of purposes
Questions, plans and conducts scientific investigations, collects and summarises data and communicates using scientific representations
Selects and uses materials, tools and equipment to develop solutions for a need or opportunity
Investigates the suitability of natural and processed materials for a range of purposes
The portion of the presentation “stuff to think about” can be omitted for students with some background in design and technologies, or to push students to come up with their own solutions.
