Third graders at Marion Math, Science & Technology Magnet took a bite out of science on Thursday as they participated in an exciting hands-on learning project -- dissecting dogfish sharks. Assisted by students from Marion High School and parent volunteers, the younger students explored shark anatomy up close, applying scientific principles they’ve been learning throughout the year.
As they examined the internal organs of the sharks, students made real-world connections to their lessons on marine biology. The dissection allowed them to better understand how sharks function as predators in the ocean ecosystem.
