Dissection Time

Help me give my students the supplies they need to perform a worm dissection.

My Project

My students dissect worms each year as part of our unit on decomposers. They love doing the dissection but this year our budgets are frozen. I have the worms but not the gloves or trays to dissect them on. This project will give me quality towels for cleanup, a large supply of gloves, and trays for performing the dissection on.

Ask anyone what they've dissected in school and they all remember each one.

It is a formative experience in a students education and has the ability to solidify a love of science and biology in a young learner. Help me fund this project so that my students can take part in an exciting lab activity that they will remember for the rest of their lives.
