What science ideas did you learn?
This week, we finished up the microscope tests, wrote procedures, and used the microscope to make predictions. I also started doing some research on the types of bacteria we (my group) found. So far we just found out what it was and not if it was harmful, helpful, or neither.
How did you learn these ideas?
We learned all of these ideas by actually working hands on with the microscope. After we drew up some sketches and made mental notes, we searched the web for microscopic pond organisms. Our link that was most helpful was http://www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/index.html?
Why is it important to know this idea (What real world application is there)?
It is important to know these ideas in the future when we have to make slides and properly handle a microscope. When we get into the higher grades, the teachers won't tell us how to make a slide or what to do with our information. This will really help us.
