Exploration of Leaves and Leaf Dye Experiment by Senior Infants and First Class

 

Senior infants and first class children went on an Autumn leaf hunt to collect some leaves to carry out an experiment. We discussed the stem, veins and even which type of tree the leaves came from.

 

We then began our experiment. We started by filling a cup with water and adding 2-3 drops of red food colouring. After this, we placed the leaves inside the cup. Each day, we checked the leaves to see if they were changing colour. After the 5th day, we wrote up our results.

 

Our results showed that:

  • On some leaves, the changed colour completely to red
  • On some leaves, only the stem changed colour
  • On some leaves, only the edges changed colour
