Dissecting Cows Eyes

The lens is like a magnifying glass.

Nice eye Rhys

What a fabulous time the M Team had today dissecting cow eyes. Even the squeamish couldn't resist a look. A big thank you to the parents who came to help with the dissections. They were just as enthusiastic as the students! It was certainly a great way to finish our Absorb phase of our Inquiry.

The children were engrossed in the session as they poked, prodded and handled the eyes. I am sure it is an event they won't forget easily. Check out our photos.
