My daughter just completed her finals week. It actually only consisted of two finals for online classes, Latin and Biology. However, having two finals, due a day apart from each other, was a new experience. I'd like to say she sailed through with calmness, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. I discovered a little panic attack post on her blog this evening.
In the end, she did absolutely fine. Both classes ended with excellent grades. Of the two classes, I think she enjoyed her Biology course the most. Now, she will try to tell you that she does not like Biology but rather tolerates it, though a little smirk usually follows. She was sure to tell me she disliked the dissections especially. For each one, the first step was to groan about the "disgusting" activity.
However, I would like to present evidence that she actually enjoyed the dissections...
Here is the very first dissection, an earthworm.
Next, we have a perch. When the lab was done, she decided to do an extra step and dissect the eyeballs and find the lens.
And lastly, here is her dissecting a frog (that's the liver in the tweezers),
I don't know, it looks like she may have enjoyed her labs just a bit. The real question is if we have a future scientist...or a comedian?

Hmmm... Comedian! : )
Hi,
I love your blog. And your kids are so fun. I hope my ds gets comfy with dissections some day as well. He wants to be a bio and computational something clubbed field and I think he needs some hands on bio dissections for sure:)
I think your dd can be both:))
