All fabric is made of fibers! -Nyala

Cotton is strong! We put pennies in the cup and cotton held more pennies. It's strong because it had tiny holes and sometimes when it has tiny holes it can hold more pennies! -Joshua, Devin, and KC

When we used the pipettes and squeezed the dye on the cotton it slurped it up like it was so thirsty. That means it absorbed the dye! - Kaydence, Lily, and Dejai

You can make fabric by taking fibers over and under. That's called weaving! Then you can dye the cotton or nylon. You can also make fabric by knitting! -Londy, London, and KC

The cotton absorbed more stains because cotton had tiny holes and it got trapped! -Malaki, Jasleen, Jamal, and Jaidlynn

Wool comes from sheep. Then a machine cleans the bugs out of the wool and then the dry the wool and then they give it to the person. If it's not dry and clean, no one will want to buy it! -Christian

Cotton comes from a plant. Nylon is little plastic fibers, and it comes from oil! -Saniah, Kavonni, and KC
