Mircoscopes!!!

For the past couple of days, we've been experimenting with microscopes.What we've put on the slides to look at were blood (donaited by David), an onion skin, a rat's brain, a piece of paper, strans of our own hair, pond water and cheek cells. We put all these products on a slide with a cover over them and put it under the scope. It was amazing how you can see the individual cells in the blood. Just like little red circles. What we saw in our group in the pond water, were little organisms. They were moving and everything. It was amazing how these little, living things are what we live from. When you look a paper from a human's eye, it looks like, well, paper, but under the scope, it looks like crystals. It was weird, but interesting. I really liked this week and what we did.
