Petri dishes x 2
How might I use these?
These are great for all kinds of indoor and outdoor investigations and explorations!
We use them for...
- Containing wriggly organisms when we're trying to view them with a field lens or microscope
- Investigating the behaviour of small invertebrates such as woodlice (do they prefer light or dark? Wet or dry?)
- Growing organisms such as bacteria or fungus that you need to see clearly but keep contained (take care with safety procedures).
- Containing "smart" gels such as colour changing gels that you want to keep clean and contained (just seal the edges with tape)
- Enzyme investigations with jelly and enzymes (such as in our Online STEM sessions)
and so much more!
