Eel dissections
The year 5,6’s at makaraka school just did a sheep heart dissection because Mr Ray farmer could not be here to do a eel dissection so we practiced on sheep hearts.
Firstly we got a sheep heart,glasses,gloves,apron,tools and a bord then we started to feel the heart and pull it apart a bit to see where to cut the heart felt squishy like slime.
Then we started cutting and looked what was inside. We were looking for fat,muscles,veins.arteries and blood clots and we found all of those things.
After that we looked at bits of the sheep heart under the microscope we saw lots of things up close like veins and blood clots some blood clots were black because they had no oxygen in it.
It was cool dissecting the sheep heart and seeing what was inside it.
It was also a good practice for dissecting the eels and using the tools.
