BIOLOGY DISSECTION CLASS

The SCCHE High School Biology Summer Dissection Labs will be held in Kid’s Town (downstairs in the basement) at Grace Community Chapel, 7661 Mexico Road, St. Peters, MO  63376 and are scheduled as follows:

BASIC DISSECTION LABS (worm, starfish, crayfish, perch, and frog):
Monday and Tuesday, June 1 and 2, 2009, 9:00 – 3:00
Cost:  $55 per student, 24 student maximum.  See description below. 

ADVANCED (FETAL PIG) LAB:
Tuesday, June 9, 2009 from 9:00 – 3:30 
Cost:  $45 per student, 24 student maximum.  See description below. 

Margaret Porch and Phebe Martin will be there to assist your high school students in all the fun of dissection!

Students in the basic lab will each dissect 5 animals (worm, starfish, crayfish, perch, and frog).  Students signing up for the fetal pig lab must have already completed a basic high school dissection lab.  (It does not have to be the one offered here.)    The fetal pig lab students will share a very large fetal pig with another student.  These labs are for high school students only.  To get the most from the class, it is recommended that all students either be taking High School Biology in the fall of 2009, or be just finishing up with a Biology course. Class sizes are limited to 24 students.  Animals and all equipment are provided.  Theme appropriate snacks are also provided.  (Gummy worms, anyone???).  Students need to bring a sack lunch.  There is a refrigerator and a microwave oven at the church if needed.

If you have questions on either lab, please email Margaret Porch at sccheleaders@gmail.com or frontporch80@gmail.com or Phebe Martin at phebem.scche@gmail.com.
