The supplies purchased filled a gap in supplies that was difficult to fill at the end of the semester last year. \r\n\r\nThe dropper bottles will be used for an activity that simulates the regulation of blood sugar. Each pair of students gets 2 dropper bottles, and one cup of simulated blood. One dropper bottle contains simulated insulin (sodium hydroxide), while the other contains simulated glucose (vinegar). As of June, we only had 3 teachers sets, so teachers had to plan their activity based on the other teachers, since supplies were limited. Thanks to you, I can prepare many more sets for our Biology Teachers.\r\n\r\nThe stickers allow us to immediately reward students and add a bit of fun to our classes.

Because of your support, our students had the opportunity to participate in a hands-on fetal pig dissection, an experience that brought our anatomy and physiology lessons to life.\r\n\r\nUsing the fetal pigs, students explored the structure and function of major organ systems while making connections between what they had learned from textbooks and real-life anatomy. Students were able to identify the heart, lungs, liver, and digestive organs for themselves. Their excitement and curiosity were evident as they worked together, asked thoughtful questions, and discovered how the different body systems are connected.\r\n\r\nMost students love the \"ick factor\" of a dissection and had a great time. eager to begin. \r\n\r\nYour generosity has given our students an authentic learning experience that they will remember for years to come. This experience has laid a strong foundation for future biology lessons and has inspired many students to think more deeply about careers in science and healthcare.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and investing in their education.

In this lab experiment, students were able to visualize how cells were making energy and using oxygen gas in real time. Additionally, they were able to practice other lab skills, such as taking precise measurements, setting up complex experiments, and completing data analysis to understand what their results meant.
