Microscope

Our school bought us a microscope and several other biology kits for Emma's labs (dissecting baby pigs, frogs . . . well I won't go into that). I found the microscope to be quite interesting, and a little gross when mom put poison oak skin under the lenses! I took several pictures of the prepared slides. There are also blank slides, so we can look at other things around the house. This is the microscope:


These are Monocot and Dicot Stems:





This is an Onion Root Tip l.s., mitosis:



This is Euglena:


This is one of two, a Horse Ascaris Egg Sec.:


A little update on school; On Pre-algebra Part I, I got a 100% A on the Final, and my course grade is 99.74%. My Final Examination for second semester of Pre-lgebra was finally graded, and I got a 98% A. My course grade was simply A, which isn't very helpful without the percent. I'm now trying to finish Algebra I Part I, and then do Part II this summer.
