D-day

D-day, some people look forward to it all year - others hope that it never happens. No I'm not talking about the historic day during World War 2. I'm talking about something even more historic - frog dissection day. Now I'm sure my older blog readers remember doing this in high school, but we're not in high school - we are 7th graders.

There are 3 kinds of frog dissectors:

• Those (mostly boys) who are really excited to dissect. They want to dissect every single body part that they can. They even want to get the brain out and empty out the abdomen.
• Second are the those that aren't looking forward to it but deal with it. We try our best to learn and get something out it. We are grossed out but try our best to have fun with it.
• Lastly are those who don't want anything to do with the frog. They just let their partner do the work. In one class a girl started full out bawling. The girl just started crying.
  

We all got through the dissection in one piece and all got good grades to boot. The question is "Is it really right to sacrifice these frogs for a bunch of 7th graders?" We could always do a virtual dissection though it was kinda of cool to dissect a real frog.

D-day was definitely exciting. It might even become my most memorable moment in 7th grade science, time will only tell. Middle schoolers are definitely adventurous when it comes to biology.
