The students will use these microscopes often throughout the school year in STEAM classes. Access to these microscopes is fundamental to the hands-on investigations of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Students will be involved with inquiry-based science labs and will be observing their own cheek cells, paramecia, brine shrimp (sea monkeys), plant cells, bacteria in yogurt, and stomata in leaves of plants that play an important role in photosynthesis and transpiration. Our school currently has a limited number of microscopes to use for a large number of students (2,200). Your help would be greatly appreciated in getting this much needed tool into the hands of young, budding scientists.
