Good morning Div.5  Scientists!

Today is Wednesday, so it is time for more science! Today’s mystery science is all about spring and flowers. How can we better understand the world around us?

  1. Watch the video: How do flowers bloom in the spring & watch the bonuses (so cute)!
  2. Try the activity (you don’t have to print anything – you can just create your own versions!
    • Making your own moving flower!
  3. Reflect on the activity (form below)
  4. You can try an extension!
    • You can see for yourself how water moves inside a plant. Fill a glass with water and add a few drops of red or blue food coloring. Place a white flower in the glass. Wait a few hours and watch to see what happens. Look closely at the flower petals. What do you notice? Repeat this experiment, but use a stalk of celery or a lettuce leaf. What do you predict will happen?

P.S. There is a special day coming up this Sunday! I will be sending you more ideas for this day tomorrow!

You can check your math channel for another math activity! Please remember to work at your own pace 🙂

Finally, quick reminder to check out the general page on Teams to see details for our class meeting on Thursday at 11am! 🙂
