Exploring the world under a microscope gives students the opportunity to view life in a new way. Using microscopes will allow my students to discover the different types of cells, view the stages of cellular division, and learn the about microorganisms. Memorable moments in a classroom leave a lasting impression on a student. Viewing their own cheek cells under a microscope is a lesson the students never forget. Observing and classifying living microscopic organisms is always a fun and fascinating lab. Being able to see, explore, or identify during a lab using the microscope helps the students understand and reinforces the concepts taught. We do not have enough working microscopes for the classroom to complete labs. The microscopes we do have are aging or damaged. Our community was affected by Hurricane Harvey last year. There are some still recovering from the devasting hurricane. I try to provide a fun learning environment for those that may not have a normal home life as they recover a year later. Using labs in my classroom is always fun and exciting for the students. Using a microscope during a lab is always an adventure. You never know what new view you will have under the microscope.
