Engineering Project: Chuck-Ken Egg Extractor Plan & Design
QUICK VIEW
CW/HW: Complete design for the egg extractor and schematics/diagram for how to make the egg collector/holder section with measurements.
DN: Why do you need tabs in your design?

LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now by answering question.
10min> Complete the Scientific Testing Notes from previous day.
5min Introduction to Engineering Project: Chuck-Ken Egg Extraction.
10min> Teacher provides strategies for building the egg holder using the grid paper: trace shape along the lines, cut and fold along the lines, and then glue flaps to hold together. No random folding, everything by design.
15min Students develop design for the egg holder part for the egg collector by drawing, cutting out, assembling, and troubleshooting.
5min Clean up. Wrap up.
AIM: Students will build an egg extractor using common inexpensive materials by first asking questions, imagining solutions and problems, planning their design, constructing their device, and refining their design for improved results.
