Beginning on January 1, 2011, Rob has taken over the role as lead science teacher. I provide the instructions, supplies, and materials while he supplies the direct teaching and experimenting direction. Usually I also keep Ava busy so that she does not purposely allow the specimens to escape. This year we are studying Biology and began with an experiment using rollie pollies, otherwise known as pill bugs. With the aid of our new Brock Magiscope, we investigated the rollie pollies up close and experimented to see if they preferred wet or dry surfaces, open or closed areas, and hot or cold temperatures.

I prefer a science with no bugs! But this does look fun!
I agree! This is why Rob is the lead teacher.
Isaac is waiting for me to order the next lens for his microscope so we can see cells...I'm more into that than things that crawl.
