A very busy week

7th grade on their way to the first field trip of the year.
What is our big adventure?  A two part trip.  1: Lyman Museum with Ms. Dee. 2: A squid dissection at Mokupapapa.  Lucky students!


Great group work ladies!
Our fabulous host Ms. Tanya giving an awesome squid anatomy lecture.

 Another great group at work.


A great looking specimen.


Writing with the squid ink and pen.  What is the pen an artifact of?

8th grade class.

So we brought back some parts of the squid dissection to look at under a microscpe.  Ms. Amy had the super fun task of cleaning out the petri dishes.  Mmmm, smells fishy.

Lyman Museum would not allow us to take pictures, we will have to remember the visit.  Overall, a great trip.
