What Is the Plastic Tray Used For?
A leaf-litter or soil sample tipped onto a tray can be spread out and searched a little at a time, so students find the woodlice, springtails, beetles and worms hiding in it. The same tray works for a scoop of pond water, a handful of seeds to sort, or shells and pebbles to examine under a lens. Keeping everything inside the tray means fewer lost specimens and a cleaner bench at the end of the lesson.
At 22.5 x 25 cm, this tray is larger than a pocket sorting tray but still easy to pass between students. Use soft forceps or a small brush to move animals, keep live specimens in the shade, and return them to where they were found. Wash the tray with mild soap and water afterwards. A set of trays is a simple, low-cost way to organise group practicals in school biology lab equipment.
