Raising Protist
Sano International School
RAISING PROTISTS! | Six graders enjoyed observing and culturing protists found in nearby sewage around the school. They collected water and put a few dead leaves and mud. This is in connection with what they are learning about cells, microscopes, and the living kingdoms.
6年生は理科の時間に、スクールの周辺の水を採取して、顕微鏡で微生物の観察をする実験をしました。細胞についての学びをとても楽しんでいた様子です。
After one week, they examined each drop with the compound microscope. This is such a great experience for them to actually see what they are learning from their textbooks and videos. Some of the skills for them to develop in this activity are communication, collaboration, hypothesizing, observing, inferring and experimenting. Students enjoyed the weeklong activity about cells, microscopes and living organisms.
