We are also finished with the 7th grade egg car crash project.  We will now analyze the videos and see just what went wrong.  Included in this post are some short clips of some of the egg cars.  Take a close look what cars do you think will make it? Watch closley because the clips are short and the cars are fast.  You will also notice some of the cars even have TRAILERS!  Check it out!

Welcome to the Chainsaw blog spot, I have posted  12 minutes of video of our first round of Hurricane Houses.  As you will see some were built better than others.  Which one would you like to be in if a hurricane was about to strike?  Please feel free to leave a comment about the houses.  If you are new to our class, students were to build a house using coffee stirrers, glue and paper.  They had to replicate a house from a magizine by drawing and then building it.  We did all this to see if their houses could stand up to the hurricane conditions of a lawn leaf blower, flooding, rain and debri.  Check it out!
