Dissecting in Science
Recently in science, the
6th-8th graders have been studying biomes, and how
organisms adapt to their environment. On Tuesday, February 19, we started an
experiment. In our experiment, we had to dissect an owl pellet. Gross? Yes, I
know. An owl pellet is the owl’s wastes that it can’t digest, but it comes from
the owl’s mouth, his vomit. During this experiment, everyone got a pair of
latex gloves and a pair of tweezers. We found numerous bones of rodents, moles,
and birds. We then sorted the bones in a sorting chart. I learned that
sometimes to learn, you might have to get a little dirty, but that’s ok!
