Squid Dissection

Ready to begin...


EW checks his squid - notice the 2 long feeding tentacles!


JS gets some help counting the arms.  Did you know a squid has 8 arms and 2 longer tentacles?  That makes 10!


Carefully taking out the beak.


RM puts the beak into his cup to take home.


RH holds up the lens from his squid's eyeball.  YIKES - he even eats the lens! 


KM makes the single cut necessary to look inside his squid - he cut from the siphon to the tail.


AD is cutting her squid open too.  I wonder if it's a boy or a girl?


Cut right here...


Look at this!  JS cut the arms and head off his squid and now he has a calamari steak left!


Girl squid...  Can you tell someone how I know it's a girl?


Taking a closer look.


Hmmmm... I wonder...


Wow!


It's the pen!  Now, NS can write with her squid ink!


AD gives her 7th grade science buddy a squid ink tattoo.


KM gets a tattoo from his science buddy.


Time to eat calamari!  Did you like it?



I'm not sure if these girls liked the calamari or not?  What do you think?
