At Aunt Stephanie's house this weekend, I dyed sunflowers! We had five sunflowers and we put food coloring in their water. The blue one was the strongest after a few days.
The blue one really did win! I wonder what they looked like after another few days. It was a good and fun experiment! Next time you could do a "follow-up" experiment, putting increasing amounts of the blue food color into each vase. Do you know what your control would be? And what would you measure? That's the middle-school science teacher in me asking... Let Ms. Bresee know what you think! I love you? Gramalicia aka Ms. Bresee
Casey, this is so cool! Ask your uncle Robert about the time he won the California Science Fair with an experiment involving flowers taking up food coloring. Yes, really! I can tell you are a scientist just as he is. And yes, Ms. Bresee, he was in eighth grade at the time so he could have been your student! love, Nonie
I think it might be fun to have Uncle Robert and Miss Casey sit down with Ms. Bresee and discuss the results and follow-up possibilities of this experiment. I bet we could all learn a lot... about something! And share some laughs, too! Love, Gramalicia
