\"\"<\/a>Following an introductory lesson on cephalopods with a focus on squid, the Year 4\/5 and 6 classes participated in a hands-on squid dissection lesson.<\/p>\n

As the dissection progressed, the children were able to identify major external and internal features and organs of a squid and to explain their functions. The children were particularly excited to extract the squid\u2019s beak, its eye lenses and its remnant shell (called a pen).\u00a0 They then used the pen and some squid ink to write a message!<\/p>\n

The children absolutely loved the experience and would like to thank Mrs. Bonnie and Mr Joel for teaching them about cephalopods and for leading the squid dissection.<\/p>\n
