SHERBURNE – On Monday, Sherburne-Earlville Elementary School students competed to see if their eggs survived a drop from the school roof. Stacey Davis' fifth grade class and Peg Lindoerfer's pre-first students worked together in pairs to construct the best containers that would prevent their eggs from cracking. Principal John Douchinsky assisted in the project by dropping each pair's container from the roof. Lindoerfer explained that the project involved creative problem solving as the teams had to brainstorm the best design and how to use the provided materials.

“They talked and exchanged ideas,” said Lindoerfer. “We have ways to turn the curriculum into something that is so much fun.”
