Microscopes

In the past week, we wrote up directions and predictions about what would happen when we look under a micro scope at the pond water. The we put that aside and took samples of the things we received and rubbed it on the agar and waited over night. The we put that aside and came back to the pond water under the microscope and did the experiment.

We saw lots of bacteria under the microscope and put drawings or sketches of it in our note books. Then we had to research it and found out what some organisms were. After that we took it slow and kept looking under the microscopes to see what else we could find.

Bacteria Studies

In science we had done experiments to test what bacteria is on what surfaces. In my group we tested The rim of a toilet bowl and the ceiling. in our studies we saw that there was nearly 90 bacteria colonies for the rim of the toilet bowl. For the ceiling we found only two or three colonies. So there for the more dirty places in the bathroom.

Then we were going to test the lake water, the chicken, the blood, and whatever other objects we received from the Truman school. I am predicting that We find most of the Bacteria in the chicken and the lake water because most people who got sick were either at the lake or at the Cheap Chicken fast food restaurant.
