The Race to Dry

This project tested 7 different fabrics to see which one dries the fastest in a close area like a bathroom.I let each fabric two minutes in water so they could get wet and let them all night resting in the bathroom. The next morning I recorded data and took the time the fabrics took to dry completely. (almost all of them took 6-8 hours)

  1. Wonderful job investigating how different fabrics dry! Your careful control of variables and testing of seven fabrics shows strong scientific thinking. I especially loved your real-world connection and future research ideas. Keep asking practical questions and testing them with data, you are thinking like a real scientist!

  2. Clear variable control and real-life applications make this project very strong. Excellent work!
