Watermelon Explosion with SLO MO. How Many Rubber Bands? An annual last day tradition at BRCPS!

In her annual tradition on the last day of school, BRCPS 3rd Grade teacher Ms. Ulich takes her class outside for a science lesson on forces and pressure. Armed with a watermelon and hundreds and hundreds of rubber bands, scholars and teachers wrap rubber bands around the middle of a watermelon to see just how many it takes before they exert enough force to make the watermelon explode. This year's answer? 630!
