Can Your Toilet Paper Pass The Test?

Question:

Things We Used:

Water in a Spray Bottle
Ruler
Spring Scale ->
Pennies ->
Plastic Cup ->
Elastic Band ->
Toilet Paper ->
Our Setup:

Our Steps:

Data:
One person in our group made a tally mark for each penny that the toilet paper could hold.
We used a spring scale to weigh all the pennies that the toilet paper could hold.


Jazmin

• 86 pennies
• 228 grams

Softy

• 35 pennies
• 105 grams

Scott #1

• 22 pennies
• 55 grams

Scott #2 (Puppy imprint on paper)

• 50 pennies
• 125 grams

Rosal

• 3 pennies
  
• 8 grams

"Mystery Roll"

• 9 pennies
• 24 grams

Answer:
The answer to our question "What is the strongest toilet paper?" is that Jazmin is the strongest. Three squares of paper held 86 pennies that weighed 228 grams when it broke. We think that when we are older and are shopping, we will buy Jazmin toilet paper if it is not too expensive.

Problems:
There could have been some problems with the experiment.

• Ms Primmett could have put more water on some papers.
• The kids might have forgot to tally one of the pennies. We should have double checked.
• Sometimes our elastic band wasn't good and the paper slipped.
  

High School Musical Baseball Party

The kids earned their second reward for in-class English language usage this year. A "High School Musical Baseball Party"!!! I'm a bit of a baseball player myself and I was REALLY impressed by how well they knew the game and could hit. Ms Anny was an awesome pitcher and Ms Lenna was our official cheerleader. Super fun!

Tension was in the air.

Everyone in position.


Very good stance!!!


Ready to swing...


A hit!!!!
