Perfect Paper

Another week means another experiment… On Wednesday, we lost our Hedgehogs’ and instead had a room full of scientists. The lab coats and goggles were out! Year Two had a very exciting afternoon where they tested different types of paper as part of our topic.

Hedgehogs investigated which paper was the most absorbent, which paper was the roughest and which paper was the strongest. We tested cardboard, paper, tissue paper, paper towels and newspaper. The results were very interesting. The scientists were very enthusiastic and excitement in the classroom was great. Who knew that testing papers was so much fun!
