Today is the first day of the project - I'm going into school early to get all the microscopes set up and make sure everything we need to make the slides is in the classroom. The pond weed arrived in the post from Amazon on Friday and I had a quick test over the weekend to check quality. I used the new digiscope to take images and was pleasantly surprised with the resolution - in fact I got a bit excited and ended up making an onion skin slide too.

Can't wait to get started now !!
