As we have worked on developing programming to help our visitors engage with our special exhibition, Skin: Living Armor, Evolving Identity, we have also adapted those programs into classroom-style lessons that classroom teachers, home school teachers, or any educator can use to expand their students’ learning before and after visiting the museum.
In this lesson, we are getting curious about the tools biologists use when they study skin. Your students will learn how to use a microscope to make a tiny piece of art, then create a tiny class gallery!
