Year 3-water transportation in plants

We have been following some of the Oak National Academy lessons.

One that we particularly enjoyed was the experiment learning about how water is transported in a plant.  The children in Year 3 were all given a piece of celery and could choose a food colouring of their choice (red, blue or green).

We watched the Oak National Academy lesson, and then set up our experiments. We left them a week, and then checked out our results. The children who used blue had the best results!
