Is Bounty really the “quicker picker upper”? In this lesson, suggested for grades K-2, students have the opportunity to test advertisers’ claims through laboratory investigations. This lesson focuses on the two main properties of paper towels—absorbency and wet strength—in addition to price, to prompt students to consider how important each of these attributes is for making a final decision on which paper towel is best. It is important to remember the goal of this lesson is to introduce students to these issues and allow them to weigh the various factors not to derive one “right” answer. Before beginning the lesson, we recommend reading Units I and IV, which are included in this book selection. A list of materials, teacher background information, safety notes, standards, assessments, references, and resources are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, Dedication, About the Author, Acknowledgments, Appendix, and Index.
