Cow's eyes

My friend Sheila taught Biology at Brent before having children and since Daniel and Ryan's 2nd grade class has been talking about the 5 senses she got some cow eyeballs to dissect for the class.  They thought it was SO awesome!  It really was interesting-Ashley and I went too.

Scott's class has been talking about some of the body systems-circulatory, respiratory, and digestive.  Another biology teacher came to their class and dissected a pig's heart and lungs for them.  We didn't get to go see that-Scott said it was interesting but very smelly!

Beware of slimy pictures below.
