The shell of an egg
helps a developing chick to survive because it has little holes in
it for the oxygen to go through easier and the water is hard to
pass through and because it is strong. ...Malana
-
It has tiny holes in it
to let oxygen in and out. It is strong. It doesn't let water in
and it keeps the chick safe from danger. ...Brooke Ann
-
The egg helps the chick
by keeping it safe and moist and sometimes camouflaged. ...Tim

Another experiment I
would do would be to to put a big egg shell into vinegar and a
small egg shell into vinegar. Then I would see how long the small
and large egg shell would take to dissolve. ...Nolan
-
I would test whether
big egg shells were stronger than small shells by testing. I would
take two large egg shells and two small egg shells and put books
on them and see which broke first. ...Paul
-
I would have the class
do this. I would have them have a contest. They would stack the
books on the eggs like I did in this experiment. ..Yumi
-
I would test big and
little shells by putting books on both. If they both held the same
or just a little different I would say no, size doesn't make a
difference. But if not I would say yes, size does make a
difference. ..Chris
-
I would do a test by 4
little eggs and 4 big eggs. I would see which were stronger. I
think the littler eggs are stronger. ...Michael M.

We left the egg shells
in Vinegar over night. In the morning Brook So was the first to
test the shell. She reached in and held the shell. Her comment
was, "The shell was all soggy and mushy. It wasn't hard any
more. It was kind of brown from the cider vinegar."

Our egg shells held 50
books. All 4 shells broke at the same time. ...Logan
-
We had 55 books. One
egg broke first and then the rest collapsed. ...Nathan
-
Two eggs were weaker.
They broke first. ...Jared
-
It took 26 books to
break the first egg. Then the other three eggs broke. Brooke So
-
The mom chicken sits on
the eggs so I know a egg is strong. ...Matt
-
I think an egg is weak
because if you drop it it will break. ...Jeremy
-
Our eggs were real
strong because Jeremy's mother hard boiled them. ...Zach
-
I think a chicken egg
is strong because it holds lots of books. ...Todd
-
I think chicken eggs
are strong because if there were fragile the check would probably
get hurt. ...Ashlie
-
I think an egg shell is
strong. When we put 50 big books on it it held them for a minite
and then broke. ...Logan
-
I think a chicken egg
is fragile because it has holes in it. ...Travis
-
Yes, I think an egg
shell is strong because the chick pecks at it to get out and I bet
it is hard to get it open. ...Alexis
