Rat Dissection Photo Story

Using the photos you took during the rat dissection (which can be found on the common drive under year 8 Science) you will be creating a photo story of your investigation. The most appropriate program to use would be MS PowerPoint but if you have another you would like to use just check with you teacher first.

Your photo story MUST:

1. Tell the story of how you completed the dissection 2. Include a section that labels the following parts of the digestive system and provides a description of their function.

Oesophagus Small Intestine Liver

Stomach Large Intestine Caecum
