I teach in a rural, title I school in which supplies and resources are limited. I want to give my Junior High students the experience of an eye dissection to encourage them to pursue careers in the medical field and better understand the properties of light by exploring the lens of an eye. Dissection is a right of passage that I do not want my students to be denied. I know student engagement and curiosity will be high with this age old Science activity, they are going to love it!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
