SCIENCE EXERIMENT: Colourful lettuces! *
Last week, the fifth grade students made a new experiment which was focused on learning how plants absorb water.
Materials: a glass jar, water, a leaf of lettuce and some food colouring (yellow, blue, red or green).
Questions: Will the lettuce absorb the food colouring? How long will it take to change its colour?
Steps:
1st- Fill the glass jar with water.
2nd- Add some drops of food colouring (you can choose the colour).
3rd- Put the leaf into the jar.
4th- Make hypothesis/predictions
5th- Wait 4 hours to observe any changes.
6th- After 24 hours, the leaf has changed its colour.
