Lab Supplies for Dive Into Marine Biology

For our middle school science classes, we try to keep specialty lab supplies to a minimum in order to make the class and activities accessible for all families. Below you’ll find options for where to purchase the few specialty items required, along with a complete list of lab supplies needed for each lesson in Dive Into Marine Biology.

Purchasing Lab Supplies

Marine Biology Lab Kit (coming soon!) We have partnered with Cornerstone Educational Supplies to provide our Dive Into Marine Biology lab kit. If you plan on completing all of the labs, this is the most convenient option.

Purchase supplies a la carte: If you’ll be choosing select labs to complete or want to purchase just a few supplies at a time, use the links below to purchase items a la carte from Home Science Tools.

Lab Supplies on a Budget

We understand the budget constraints of many homeschoolers—purchasing curriculum and supplies often for multiple children can be pricey! We recommend your students plan to watch all of the lab videos. For those labs that require specilaty supplies, we’ve included images and demonstrations so they can follow along at home.
