This year, we are studying Apologia Biology for our science curriculum. We have a couple other families that are doing the labs with us on Friday afternoons and today was our first lab. We invested in this wonderful microscope and digital camera so we could share with you all our discoveries. It was very exciting learning about our new tools of discovery. Look at what all we saw.
This is an inner cheek scraping of oldest son, 40x with Methylene Blue contrast.
This is Millie the cat's hair at 40x
This is a grouping of youngest son's sloughed off skin cells from his head (frequently called dandruff) at 40x
This was our basic sewing thread, 40x
We all got to learn about the microscope, how to prepare a wet slide, mount it on the microscope stage and bring our objects in to focus. It is going to be a great biology year.
O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The earth is full of Your possessions- Psalms 104:24 NKJV
Blessings as you ponder God's Wonderful Creation! Suzie
