A great fall

Donna Firnberg’s kindergarten class at Hall-Kent Elementary recently tried a “Humpty Dumpty” experiment. Not only did they learn to recite and read the poem, but they also participated in a science experiment and writing lesson. 

The students watched Humpty Dumpty (a real egg) fall into different materials and recorded their observations. Did he crack?  If he didn’t, why not? If he did, why?
