xrayHands-on exploration of the wonderful human body can be an exciting part of a CSCC Fantastic Fridays visit. We offer exercises in both anatomy and physiology.

NOTE:  We ask that teachers obtain parent/guardian permission prior to scheduling exercises in anatomy.  Gloves and safety goggles will be provided for participating students and must be worn by all participants at all times.

THE EYES HAVE IT
Explore the anatomy of the eye by participating in a hands-on dissection of the mammalian eye.

SPECIAL, SPECIAL SENSES
Students can visit the Physiology laboratory and test their own—and classmates'—vision and hearing.  Tests of depth perception, visual field, balance and color vision are included. Great activity to partner with THE EYES HAVE IT.

SUPERMAN, SUPERGIRL
Use electromyography in the physiology laboratory to record muscle potentials and find out how strong your arm muscles are. VERY LIMITED AVAILABILITY.

CADAVER EXPLORATION
Students view and can choose to handle the prosected human cadaver. (GRADES 8 +)  PARENTAL PERMISSION MANDATORY; LIMITED AVAILABILITY; Not available Autumn 2023).

YOUR DYNAMITE DNA
In this lab students will learn about DNA and have the opportunity to isolate a sample of their own DNA and turn it into a one-of-a-kind take home necklace.
