Images from inside the Womb



While reproduction and development wasn't my favorite topic to talk about with 14 year olds (I mean they laugh at everything), I always enjoyed seeing their amazement when I showed images of fetal development.  They were truely amazed by what fetuses look like and how they start off resembing the newborn very little.  While students enjoyed the comparisons between humans and other animals, I found that they were most interested in what they once looked like.  I came across a website that provides 10 images of human gestation along with some facts of what the baby can do at that stage.  I particually like that they facts accompany the images as students are often amazed at what a fetus can do at such an early age.
