Science 8 – A highlight of the year is the sheep eye dissection. With minimal guidance, students were able to ethically and responsibly dissect the eye. My peer tutor was a fantastic help during this activity as there are a few places that kids have problems, most noticeably when puncturing through the eye the first time.
I got a chuckle from the kids after the lab when they told me that “finally, we got to do a lab.” Apparently a science lab isn’t a lab until animal parts are cut into!
