Mosquito
Project at SSLS
Children
of SSLS kindergarten are fishing with a syringe
In the end of their "sunflower
project " children of Sharm El Sheikh Language School (SSLS) kept flowers
in a vase.
After some weeks Ali,
one of the children, discovered that the water under one faded sunflower
contained a great number of swimming animals. To observe these "fishes"
each child received a sample of this water in a self-made aquarium, a
5-mL bottle and a 1-mL syringe which was cut
at the top.
......
Left: The children
were "fishing" the animals very clever: They learned how to fill the syringe
and to transfer water and animals into their 5-mL bottle.
Right: 15 labeled
samples of "worms" and "dots" were the result of half an hour work in three
small groups. Each child kept its bottle closed in a way that fresh air
could enter, but no animals could escape.
