Year 8 students were in the deep end and on a mission to decide the best paper towel on the shelf at Coles. With Three brands; Coles, Handee and Viva, students were give the task to measure the absorbency of each brand and decide which item is the best value.  

Students undertook a planning phase, made hypothesis and put their theories to the test.  

 

Student reflections came back positive as they enjoyed the element of agency in their Numeracy Lesson and the connection to a real-world context.
