This week we learned about GERMS. Tiny little organisms that are everywhere. We took samples from around the classroom... the circle time rug, the door knob and the water fountain in the hall. We also took samples from our own hands. We will be watching our petri dishes to see what kind of molds will grow. I think the children will want to wash their hands more often once they see what is growing in the petri dishes!! The children were amazed to learn that some germs are good germs.... yogurt (bacteria), blue cheese (mold) and mushrooms (fungus). Another fun science lesson for our class.
Thank you to Dr. Rosler and her assistant Eli. :-)
