  3. Challenge • We had to design a package to protect a Pringle when we mailed it. • We had to make the package light and small (minimum 30 cubic inches) but tough enough to withstand other heavy packages and rough handling.

  4. Process • First, we brought in materials. • We split up, three people worked on constructing the box; two people tested the materials. • We decided on the materials. • We made the box out of cardboard and made it into a shape that fit the standards. • We did test runs with the box and the different materials we were considering. • We tested the chip in different positions and found the the best position.

  6. Materials • We used shredded paper and found out that it was light and protective. • We tried bubble wrap which did not work very well; it was not very flexible. • Our pillow stuffing also worked in the box. • We learned that the smaller packing peanuts worked better than the big ones when we crushed them up.

  8. Testing • We made the testing package, then tossed it to each other. • We threw it on the ground. • We did the ‘Dictionary Test’ to see how much weight it could endure. We piled six 1,098 page dictionaries on a single box.

  10. Results and Conclusion • Teamwork was important and some of us had great ideas. • We listened to everyone and compromised between some good ideas. • Communication was important because it helped us with the project. • We had a really good time doing this project and it was a great learning experience.

  12. The Painted Eggs Do you always use brown eggs? What do you use for painting them? Does the size of the egg matter? How about the size of the hole in the egg?
