Help me give my students specimens of dissection for comparative anatomy in my Biology classes
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Powers's classroom raised $879
This project is fully funded
My Project
Dissection in Biology is a great hands on activity to look at the anatomy of different organisms, and to compare that anatomy to our own. I have dissected in previous years, and the students always tell me that is what they remembered most about the class. It is the one lab that always catches the student's interest.
Help my students get the specimens they need to dissect in class.
Buying these specimens, especially with the shipping cost, is always very expensive. With your help, we can continue to engage students in this hands-on lab.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
