Brain Dissection Help Needed!/ Lab Guidelines

Dear Families,

We are looking for parent/guardians to come in and assist students during your child's class period in
Innovations. With your guidance (I will provide an answer key), you will confirm whether or not students are labeling the brain correctly, ensuring that scalpels are all accounted for, and monitoring students to ensure that all lab materials are returned and cleaned.

If you are interested in helping for the period, email me at eraymond@marysvilleschools.us. We greatly appreciate your help!

Thank you,
Mrs. Raymond



Lab Guidelines

1. Scalpels are dangerous and we are using high grade scalpels that are used for surgical procedures. If anyone is messing around, you will be removed from the classroom and will get a zero for the day.

2. Gloves- I will show you on Wednesday about sizing and how to properly remove them so that you do not get sheep on you. You're welcome.

3. Clothing- please dress comfortably and wear shoes. If your feet are showing, no dissection. I do have aprons and safety goggles for you to wear as well. Girls- it is recommended that you wear your hair up or pulled back.

4. There will be volunteers in the classroom. Again, I know you are all wonderful individuals and are very respectful. Thank you for showing this to our guests as well.

5. Documenting the dissection- you may bring your phone on Monday to take pictures of the sheep brain. This is not to take selfies of you and your classmates. Please leave your chromebook in your locker, unless you are using that to take pictures. You will need your engineering notebook. 

6. Cleaning area after dissection: you are responsible for cleaning up your area. This includes disinfecting all tools, tables, and protective gear. Your brain should be properly discarded in the trash. All scalpels must be accounted for before you leave the classroom.

7. No eating or drinking during this lab- we do not put anything in our mouths during lab. Common sense prevails!

Thanks for being awesome!
Mrs. R.
