Microscopy Art Show
In this activity, kids can reassemble some beautiful microscopy images made at Rockefeller University. To do this, kids will order numbers of different kinds and with different levels of difficulty, opening up the opportunity to discuss how numbers can represent different sizes and scales for exploring our world.
Then have a scientific art show to enjoy the beautiful images!

Kids can order the strips based on the numbers at the bottom getting larger to reassemble the final image.
(Level up: Cut off any rows of numbers that may be easier than the kids are ready for)
Paste them into the template on the next page to make your own scientific art gallery.
Enjoy!
