Online Microscope

Today feels like it should be dedicated to science!  Here's a neat website from The Open University that allows you to view a variety of different plant, animal, or microbe cell slides.  This is a great opportunity to show all your students a specimen without worrying about lab equipment.  All you need is a projector!

Once you have a specimen in the lens, you can click on areas of interest (outlined in red and green brackets) to zoom in for a closer look.  You can also move the slide around to look at different areas of the cell.  Have fun!
