madteaparty Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 He won't be at home for high school, but I hope and wish and plan for some real science to happen in middle school. I never laid eyes on a microscope until high school (and then it was a hurried thing in a lab with 40 other kids waiting in line). So I would love something user-friendly. I did purchase a couple of microscope books so as to be able to tell what I'm looking at. Oh, and the Brock magiscope that gets so much love: I greatly dislike. It seems like a hefty magnifying lens. Can you suggest a microscope set for me to get us through middle school? Many thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amsunshine Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 We like the Home Advanced Microscope from HST. The mechanical stage makes viewing so much easier!!! Keep an eye out for sales, though, which they have regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie of KY Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I like the microscopes through Home Science tools as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
