Handheld Digital Microscopes are tools for engaging students and improving scientific and creative thinking.

Use handheld digital microscopes to observe closely, draw, interpret, and think by analogy

Achieve Standards and 21 st Century Skills Lessons Using Handheld Digital Microscopes Life Sciences 1- Structure and Function Science Practices 2 – Developing & Using Models 3 – Planning & Carrying Out Investigations Language - Vocabulary Acquisition & Use Reading - Key Ideas & Details - Craft and Structure - Range of Reading & Level of Text Complexity Mathematics Measurement and Data

21 st Century Learning Hands-on Approach, Seamless Teaching and Learning Integrating Technology – Opportunities for Project-Based Learning

Students use digital microscopes while learning science, reading, language arts, and mathematics.

“I’ve taught FOSS Insects for years. Now, with digital microscopes, my Grade 2 students acquire and use more vocabulary – more labels, describing words and similes.” – Grade 2 Teacher

Students use digital microscopes in art education programs. They capture magnified images and create digital artwork. Magnified Image of Color Printed Material

Use award-winning children’s literature to introduce students to different microscopes.

Students engage and make text-to-self connections With realistic fiction, Greg’s Microscope by Millicent Selsam & Arnold Lobel.

Students connect to the real world of science using informational text and biography, Hidden Worlds by Stephen Kramer and Dennis Kunkel. Learn about the life of Dennis Kunkel, a professional scientist. View his photographs of small objects taken with different microscopes. Receive advice for becoming a scientist.

Students learn science practices. Which scientific tool is best for observing small objects?

A Plastic Hand Lens?

A Plastic Microscope?

A Traditional Compound Microscope?

A Handheld Digital Microscope?

With handheld digital microscopes, students can capture still, video, & time-lapse images and observe small objects together.

Digital microscopes are easy to use, have greater magnification (10x – 200x), and can be used to view all materials.
