Fish Dissection Day

May 13, 2008

Our guest speaker, Tom Walker from the Department of Forestry, taught the students all about the parts of a rainbow trout.  He showed us how to dissect our rainbow rout.  Each pair of students shared one trout and identified and dissected all of the body parts.  It was an educational day, but our room was very fishy smelling for the rest of the day!

Science Rules!

Identifying the body parts 

was easier than getting 

them out in one piece.
