We have been using our sense of sight and our observation skills to see what changes occur. What we've seen is that the flower in the clear water hasn't changed colour, but the others have! We now have red, green and blue flowers in our classroom!
On Wednesday we drew a picture of our experiment showing what the flowers looked like when we first put them in the water. Fallon also added some labels to her picture.
This afternoon we have been looking at our flowers and thinking about the changes we have seen. We drew a picture of what the flowers look like now and thought of a sentence to describe what we have seen. Some of us tried to write the sentence ourselves.
We have learnt that a plant will drink up water through its stem and this water goes into the petals. If the water is coloured, the petals will change colour too! We have also learnt that some changes don't happen straight away - you have to be patient, wait, and keep checking until you see a change!
We have kept some of the flowers we didn't use for our experiment in our classroom. What do you think will happen to them? How will they change?
