Pond Water Preparation

  1. Gently stir the jar containing the water sample in order to ensure uniform distribution of organisms in the water.

  2. Using a dropper, place two or three drops of pond water at the center of a clean, sterile microscopic slide.

  3. Place a clean, sterile cover on top of the water drop (This should be done carefully, placing the slide on one edge at a 45-degree angle and gently laying it on top of the water to allow for even spreading of the water sample and remove bubbles)

  4. Touch a piece of blotting paper on one side of the slide to absorb any excess water.

  5. Place the slide on the microscope stage for observation.

What does procedure mean in science fair projects mean?

"Procedure" is basically a description of what you actually did ... not why, not what it means, just what you physically did. For example, something like "Water samples were obtained from local rivers. Each sample was filtered to remove large debris and a 25 ml aliquot from the sample was taken" followed by further description of what you then did to obtain the results (which you will list in a separate section).
