We wanted to research transportation by ships in history. Ships were used to discover new land and to also bring supplies by sea to foreign countries. We would use the egg drop activity in our lesson plans as a hands-on experience to show how gravity works in different ways. The strategies we learned for reading aloud were very fun, and the class even had a book read to us by a fellow classmate, which was a great way to practice these skills and to also give us an idea of what we should and shouldn't do.
