It's Dissection Time! Visual Guides for Zoology Dissections

Help me give my students Dissection Mats which are an excellent resource for my zoology students to use during their dissections. Each dissection group will have a Dissection Mat that helps guide them through their dissections.

My Project

For my zoology students, the preserved animal dissection for each unit is their favorite aspect of my class. They enjoy being hands on with the animals and viewing the anatomical structures we have discussed in class. It is always a joy to watch how they can go from being a little unsure to very excited to perform these dissections.

These Dissection Mats will be an excellent resource for my students as a visual aid during their dissections.

These mats have clear, concise instructions and detailed color photographs of real dissection specimens to guide students through their own dissections. They are made of vinyl which will make them easy to clean and they will last many years, through many dissections.
