Year 3 Green : how is water transported in plants?
0 (0)

by

Year 3 Green wore their investigation caps today and experimented in their science lesson. We learned that water is transported within plants through xylem in the stem. We observed the vascular system in a Celery plant stem because it is easy to see. Children used magnifying glasses to observe the xylem.

We placed a celery stem with leaves in a glass of water mixed with strong, powdered red food colouring. We will leave it for 24 hours and observe the results tomorrow.

Children drew and labelled a diagram and made a prediction about what they think will observe tomorrow and why they think this will happen.

This term our topic in science is plants and how they grow. Y3G learned the process of pollination through an interesting activity. Children dived into different characters as flowers and pollinators to understand how a flower is pollinated.
