Bullfrog Dissection 9th Grade Biology

My students need to dissect frogs in their 9th grade biology class!

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I'm probably biased, but I think I have some of the best students around! The students in my classes are the reason I come to work every day. They're goofy, they're funny, and they genuinely brighten my days.

That being said, I want to give my students the absolute best of everything, because I know that's what they deserve!

I want my biology class in the fall to be immersive, engaging, and to always keep them guessing. The textbook/definition biology classrooms of the past won't be found in Ms. McFarland's curriculum!

My Project

I want to allow my students to experience the quintessential high school frog dissection. These kits I'm asking for include enough frogs for each student to work with a partner and have a frog to dissect. They also include a dissection mat with instructions on exactly how to dissect them, as well as other dissection supplies.

I think these kits will make it quick and easy for my kids to experience frog dissection in a clear and concise way!

By utilizing these kits instead of ordering the frogs alone, it's less stress on our already struggling science lab equipment and will make the process run much more smoothly.
