Continuing our study of plants, students viewed images of plants they found around the school magnified 300x via our USB microscopes.
We projected the images on to the electronic whiteboard, and all students were amazed to discover that the plant roots and leaves were covered in small hairs.
After this lesson, many students ran outside during the break to collect more and different types of plants. On Monday, we are going break up into small groups, working two to three students to a microscope, and study these other plants that students found.
