In second grade science, students have been working on defining a problem and developing solutions. For this lesson, students identified the properties of given materials and had to identify which would be best for a pillow. Students worked together to test out different materials and ended by writing a claim stating which material was best. Most of the class agreed that soft cotton was the best material while a few preferred firmer foam.
