Exploring with the Digital Microscope

Picture

This morning we laid out all the flowers and plants we’d collected on the lighttable. With the help of some magnifying glasses and a powerful digital microscope we were able to observe and record the properties of the plants.

Lochie: The pictures look great don’t they. 
CC: That’s a yellow flower so up close! It look like light yellow, you know white yellow?
Lochie: Perfect, that looks cool! 
CC: Did you take a picture of this Lochie? 
Lochie: It looks like pinkish reddish.

Jack: Please take picture. It’s the inside of the flower. Now is a good time to click. 
Lochie: Wait when I say it’s done, it’s done. 
Jack: Can you take a click? This is me I just took. 
Lochie: This is so much photos!
Jack: Do you like those glowing things? Those are grapes and these flowers help the grapes grow. But you can’t eat them right now because they are not ready. 
Jack: These are beads that make flowers. Can you see this up close? 
Lochie: That is the one you  want. Wow, whoa this clicker is going wild!

​

Violet: Can you take a click of the a leaf? I’m just looking. 

George: This petal looks like pinkish blueish. 
Jack: Are you ready for the picture?
CC: Yeah that looks rainbowish. Maybe that’s the inside of it? This one has sparkles!

George: Whoa, look at that!
Violet: This is my favorite
George: Hahaha it’s Violet’s finger! 
Violet: He took a picture of my finger
Goerge: Do you want to take a picture of that?
Violet: Let’s do the rubber band again. That silly rubber band.

When children weren’t at the digital microscope they explored flower pressing techniques with Brigitte. Today we tried pressing them using a hammering method. This is something we will explore in further depth tomorrow!
