Absorbent?

Today we continued our investigation of paper. We focused on identifying paper that was "absorbent". Which type of papers worked best to absorb water? We tried several different kinds of paper to see what happened. They were not all absorbent (i.e. wax paper). We also talked about how some paper was better for certain jobs, when compared to other kinds of paper.

The vocabulary that we have been learning/using as related to paper includes.... thick, thin, hard, soft, smooth, rough, absorbent, pliable. Try using these words at home, too
