🩸🕵️♂️ CSI in the classroom!
This week, students in Mrs. Wright's Medical Detectives class investigated a crime by blood typing samples from suspects, a victim, a weapon, and the scene. Using anti-A, anti-B, and anti-Rh serums, they observed coagulation reactions to identify blood types and crack the case.
(Disclaimer--All "blood" used was synthetic and safe for classroom use.)
