The document describes an experiment to test the absorbency of four different brands of diapers. Students are asked to brainstorm characteristics of a good diaper and develop a procedure to test and compare how much water each diaper brand can absorb. They then carry out the experiment, record their results, and analyze which diaper was the most absorbent and best value based on cost and performance. The goal is to determine which diaper brand would work best for a student's sister who is expecting a baby.
