Life science


The Brook Hill School’s seventh grade Life Science class recently completed their lesson on crayfish dissection. The crayfish is a cannibalistic scavenger that lives on the muddy bottoms of streams and ponds. It emerges at night to feed on dead and decaying matter, insect larvae and worms. The students continually improve their dissection skills with regularly scheduled time in the lab. Students pictured are (l to r) Samantha Anderson, Daniel Priddy and Malik Flemming. -(Photo Courtesy of Linda Seronello) The Brook Hill School’s seventh grade Life Science class recently completed their lesson on crayfish dissection.
