Room 11 enjoyed taking part in a quick Science investigation today. We have started a new unit all about plants. One of the questions we wanted to find out was 'where does the water travel and does it reach all parts of a plant?
One of the ways to find this out was to add food colouring to our water and place a stick of celery in the cup.
Hopefully we should be able to see the stem and leaves turn red if our predictions are correct. The water should travel up the stem and straight to the leaves, taking the red colouring with it. 
We left the celery in the coloured water overnight and will check them tomorrow to see if there have been any changes.
