 The
Tape Slide
Submitted by Marty Findley, Sarah Moore Greene Elementary, Knoxville, Tennessee
Here's a safe and easy way for students to share their discoveries in the field:
carry along a dispenser of 2" wide clear packaging tape and a field microscope
from the
Carolina™ Microscopic Discovery Kit. When students want to view a specimen
under the microscope, they just mount the specimen between 2 pieces of tape and
view it immediately. [Sounds like a great way to capture the elusive teachable
moment.--Ed.]
