My Project

With this project student explore the human body and organs. We use this knowledge and use it to compare how other life forms have similar structures or different structures. We also do at least 3 dissection of common animals like shark, rat and frog. Along with dissections, I would use the incubator to do a small unit about bacteria and have the students do a project were the student learn about common disease causing bacteria that exists around us thus we need to eat health and learn to cope with the stress of school and life.

The supplies will help out with long term teaching because I share alot of materials with other science teachers, so not just my students will benefit from these donations.

I also like to give the students an independent project were they select the topic and have to work on it completely alone in preparation for the school science fair.
