週1時間. I will demonstrate how to prepare a slide and how to observe the specimen under a microscope. Then students will try with their own microscopes and work in their scientific journal. There will be weeks when students will need to do some reading and writing outside of class and turn it in. If your student needs alternatives to writing or needs to read with audio, we can work with that. My goal is to get your teens thinking like a scientist and to keep a scientific journal in a way that aligns with their strengths.文章の成績

The course includes demonstrations, tutorials, and instructions for using many kinds of microscopes in your home along with the lab skills, scientific thinking, and record keeping needed for college prep science. And all of it is provided to you in a way that is friendly to out of the box and neurodivergent teens. Each class time will include teaching and discussion time with me and the opportunity for students to ask questions and get help with their own microscopes as they work. Topics covered include: Types of microscopes and which ones are easiest to use at home Parts of a microscope & safe handling How to prepare a specimen for a light microscope Making Wet Mount Slides Making a Dry Mount Slide Collecting Specimens Observing using high and low power Cell biology- including plant and animal cells (including some of our own!) Mycology- the study of fungi Entomology- the study of insects Microbiology- the study of bacteria and other very small forms of life Pathology- the study of the causes and the effects of disease (pathologists use microscopes to help identify disease) Art, Photography, & the Science of Snow- we’ll learn how to photograph snowflakes under a microscope Ecology- the study of relationships between living organisms Fiber Science- the study of the design of textiles, fabrics and other materials aided through the concepts of chemistry and physics. We’ll learn how to identify fibers with our microscopes. The History of Microscopy- and the people who developed and made important scientific progress with a microscope Advanced Microscopy- electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy
学習到達目標
Students will identify the parts, care, and handling of microscopes.Students will make wet and dry mount slides with stain and without and record observations in their scientific notebook.

This class provides accommodations for neurodivergent learners with ADHD, ASD, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, and other learning differences. Students can record their learning with audio, video, and/or writing, ask questions, etc.
保護者へのお知らせ
Microscope use does require some safety precautions in handling the microscopes, the materials used to make the slides, the chemicals, we'll use in slide preparation (in two lessons), and the petri dish with agar that we'll grow bacteria on. In each case, I will remind students of the precautions and make sure they have written instructions and the proper safety gear for the labs.
We'll be using some videos via YouTube to reinforce the course content, especially when we cannot make an observation on our own.
受講の前提条件
none
受講に必要なもの
A microscope which can be a compound light microscope or a digital microscope. It doesn't have to be the most expensive, but the quality of the microscope will determine how much you'll see and the quality of your image. Students will also need a notebook like a composition book for their scientific journals. Coloring supplies like colored pencils will enhance their journal keeping. I will distribute the class material list once you sign up for the class and it will have a kit you can buy with most of the materials we'll use in the course, other than the microscope.
