Focus and magnify light in differing amounts to view the specimen.

Hold the slide in place on the stage.

Controls the amount of light passing through the opening of the stage.

Contains the ocular lens and magnifies the image produced by the objective lenses.

Moves the stage large distances to roughly focus the image.

Moves the stage tiny distances to slightly adjust and fine-tune the image focus.

3. Plug in the microscope and/or turn it on.4. Revolve the nosepiece until the low-power

objective lens clicks into place. 5. Place a slide on the stage. Center the

specimen over the opening on the stage. Use the stage clips to hold the slide in place.

6. Look at the stage from the side. Carefully turn the coarse adjustment knob to raise the stage until the low-power objective almost touches the slide.

7. Looking through the eyepiece, very SLOWLY turn the coarse objective knob until the specimen comes into focus.CAUTION: If you turn too quickly the slide could hit and break the objective lens. MAKE SURE THE LENS DOES NOT HIT THE SLIDE.

8. Use the fine focus knob to bring the specimen into perfect focus.

9. To switch objective lenses, look at the microscope from the side and carefully revolve the nosepiece until the appropriate objective is in place.

10. Use the coarse and fine adjustment knobs to adjust the image at each of the magnifications. CAUTION: NEVER, EVER, use the coarse adjustment knob with the high power objective. This could break the lens.

Determining Total MagnificationMultiply the power of the ocular lens, by the power of the objective lens. OCULAR LENS = 10XOBJECTIVE LENS = 4XTOTAL MAGNIFICATION = 40X

Meteorological ObservationsOBJECTIVE: Observe snow using a hand lens and draw an accurate representation of what you see on your paper to understand the importance of communicating accurate scientific data.PROCEDURE: PART A:Place a small pile of snow on your black construction paper. Observe this pile WITHOUT the hand lens. Draw what the pile looks like on the construction paper below.

How do microscopes work?

Virtual SEMMicroscopes have come a long way since the days of Leeuwenhoek. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) makes it possible to see details he couldn't imagine. In this Planet Diary activity, you'll peer through a virtual SEM to explore the micro-world.

Directions Go to Virtual Scanning Electron Microscopy from Molecular Expressions. Select Carpet

Beetle from the Choose a Sample menu. Slowly slide the focus bar until the image looks sharp. Adjust the contrast and brightness bars for the best view.

Slide the Magnification bar to its lowest power (60x for the beetle). Slowly increase the magnification and notice the details. How would you describe the structures you see? Record your observations in the SEM Journal in the Workspace.

Explore the other specimens listed on the table to complete your journal.

Accurate Scientific DrawingsObservations with a Microscope

OBJECTIVE: To fluently use a compound microscope to accurately observe specimens and record accurate data.

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED… Make sure the LOW objective is in

place. Make sure the STAGE is all the way

down. Make sure the DIAPHRAGM is set on

LOW. Make sure the LAMP is plugged in

and/or turned on.

Check that your slide is not broken or cracked. (Report cracks or breaks to your teacher.)

Use lens paper to gently clean dust and fingerprints from your slide and objective lenses.

Refer to Appendix A to appropriately find and focus your specimen.

PROCEDURE: When instructed by your teacher, each pair should obtain

their compound light microscope and transport it safely to the lab table.

Each pair should also obtain the slide carriers for today’s lab. Await instructions from your teacher for cleaning the slides

and objective lenses together.
