How to make celery blue on the leaves

We have been learning about how water travels up plants.

Our prediction:  
All the blue will come up the stem and then it will make the leaves go blue.

Observations:
4/5 The water is blue
8/5 The leaves have gone blue and some of the stem has gone blue.

Conclusion:
If the water is coloured, the celery sucks up the coloured water.  The celery goes the same colour as the water. 

Here is an example of procedural writing …
