Today we planned and carried out an investigation about the properties of materials. We wanted to find out which ball was the bounciest. We used a leather football, plastic hockey ball, tennis ball and a  sponge ball. We decided that it would be fair to drop each ball from the top of a metre ruler and measure the height the ball bounced to. We concluded that the football bounced the highest (50cm). Therefore, the football was the bounciest.
