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!


Specification:
