Rhondabee Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 but I have just completed my first dissection *EVER*!!! And I didn't even feel sick! And - amazingly! - we even found all the "stuff" we were supposed to find! Guess you can teach an old dog new tricks, after all! (And, *thank you*, Apologia!!!)

rwjx2khsmj Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Congratulations! We found our dissecting this year to be "cool and gross" according to my dc. It was definitely something they'll remember. I bet yours do too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhondabee Posted February 27, 2010 Author Share Posted February 27, 2010 So what did you dissect? :) Just the worm so far! :) I convinced the Science Chair to let me skip Biology in high school. Not for any true ethical concerns, just because I really do get queasy around any "body" that isn't functioning properly. Add to that my well-deserved reputation for *never* being able to do any lab "correctly", and Biology has been the huge Everest in my path to completing high school at home! We have a crayfish, a perch, and the infamous frog still to go - but both DS and I are feeling *much* better now that the first one's a done deal. Honestly, if I can do this, anyone can!

Is now the time to confess that I went all over town to find a cow's heart and then conveniently had a meeting one night and left it for dh to dissect with the children?:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
