IV. PROCEDURE
How do you use the microscope?
A. ELICIT
Ask the students to bring out their cellphones and take some pictures. Then,
B. ENGAGE ask them to zoom in the picture. Facilitate the activity through the questions
on LG p 36.
Do the activity Part I in LM pp 85-87 “The Microscope, Its Parts and
C. EXPLORE their Functions”
Procedure
1. Get the microscope from its box or the cabinet. Do this by
grasping the curved arm with one hand and supporting the base
with the other hand.
2. Carry it to your table or working place. Remember to always use
both hands when carrying the microscope.
3. Put the microscope down gently on the laboratory table with
its arm facing you. Place it about 7 centimeters away from the edge
of the table.
4. Wipe with tissue paper or old t-shirt the metal parts of the
microscope.
5. Figure 1 shows a light microscope that most schools have. Study
and use this to locate different parts of the microscope.
6. Look for the revolving nosepiece. Note that objectives are
attached it.
You should know that there are lenses inside the objectives.
7. Find the coarse adjustment. Slowly turn it upwards, then
downwards.
8. Looking from the side of the microscope, raise the body tube.
Then, turn the revolving nosepiece in any direction until the LPO is
back in position.
You will know an objective is in position when it clicks. Note
that the revolving nosepiece makes possible the changing from
one objective to another.
9. Locate the eyepiece. Notice also that it is marked with a number
and an x. Know that the eyepiece further magnifies the image
of the object that has been magnified by the objective. If the
eyepiece is cloudy or dusty, wipe it gently with a piece of lens
paper.
10. Look through the eyepiece. Do you see anything?
11. Now, locate the mirror. Then, position the microscope towards
diffused light from the windows or ceiling light. Look through the
eyepiece and with the concave mirror (with depression) facing
up, move it until you see a bright circle of light.
Only use lens paper in cleaning the lenses of the eyepiece and the
objectives.
The bright circle of light is called the field of view of the
microscope. Adjust the position of the mirror so that it is not
glaring to the eyes. Practice viewing through the microscope using
both eyes open. This will reduce eyestrain.
12. Locate the diaphragm. While looking into the eyepiece,
rotate the diaphragm to the next opening. Continue to do so until
the original opening you used is back under the hole in the stage.
13. Find the inclination joint.
14. Grasp the arm and slowly pull it towards you. Sit down and try
looking through the eyepiece.
