make records of your experiments (make sure
you date them). Record the types of specimens
you observe; their colors, shapes and patterns;
how they look through each objective; how you
prepare your slides; what tools you use; how dif
-
ferent specimens compare with each other; and
so forth.
Experiment observing with all three objectives for
all specimens until you get a feel for magnification
levels.
And most importantly, keep your equipment and
the working environment clean. Experiments work
best with clean and uncontaminated equipment.
Care for Your Equipment
The Bresser 900x Microscope is a precision opti
-
cal instrument and, when treated with care, will
provide you with years of use and discovery fun.
• Always carry the microscope with two hands
– one around its arm and one under the base.
• Always remove slides from the stage before put
-
ting the microscope away.
• Do not use anything except lens cleaning tissue
to clean the lenses.
• Never touch a slide with the objective lenses of
the turret.
• Remove the batteries before storing the micro
-
scope for a month or longer.
Remember, you can make
a specimen slide out of
almost any material.
When you are on a
playground, at school, in a
park, or just sitting around at
home, train yourself to look
at all the material around
you. Keep an eye out for
what might make a good
specimen and discover the
hidden microscopic world
that surrounds us all.
