Today in class, students began Microscope Mania, an eight station lab that explores the parts and functions of different types of microscopes. Students used compound light microscopes, hand-held digital proscopes, a projection microscope , and even a primitive microscope that enlarges images through drops of water. Students viewed fish scales, silk, pond water, algae, euglena, and much more! There is no homework tonight, we will finish Microscope Mania on Tuesday.
