Students within the Murfreesboro City Schools are learning with a fun hands on project this month.

As part of the Tennessee STEAM festival, Hobgood Elementary students are simulating a refugee supply drop with an egg drop prototype. The children have designed a container that protects the contents (the egg) from being destroyed from the drop. They will practice at three different heights: counter, 12 ft ladder, and the roof of the school.

The eggs that survive the roof, will go up in the helicopter and be dropped to see if they survive.
