About the store
I am currently a Science Enrichment and Biology teacher with over 20 years of experience in preK-12 education. I am certified in pre-K through 8th grade education, Biology, Gifted Education, and ESOL. I have enjoy creating materials for preschoolers through high school Biology students at all levels of learning and English proficiency. Additionally, I try to develop materials that can be used to enrich students through content, for Gifted and high-interest learners. I use easy-to-read fonts that have proven helpful for dyslexic students and those with visual impairments, and primarily black and white printables to make content accessible for as many students and teachers as possible.

Parts of a Microscope Presentation & Summary

This item is a 20 slide Google presentation, five question summary for students, as well as a key to use for the summary questions. I use this presentation to introduce the parts and usage of compound light microscopes in the classroom. The teacher can use a number of slides per day, or the presentation all at once, depending on your class needs. This is great for science enrichment or acceleration for advanced or gifted students. This presentation can be used whole group, in small groups, or pu
