147 Jan. 31 School, the Triam Udom School, where Panee Chirawanich, who worked with BSCS, is having Miss Rojane Charuprakom try out the curriculum materials. Miss Rojane was in the midst of a review since the students are to be examined next week. She spoke in Thai and had the students come forward and, one by one, add to drawings I found put a cross section of a root and stem, and to label the parts. The review lesson seemed to be all morphological. She then showed me pressed plants neatly prepared and sewed in place on white blotting (?) paper and covered with albumin. She said the students were just getting started with this work and [crossed out] were enthusiastic. She also showed my trays of fascinating insects, also prepared idently. In another room she showed me samples of grafting and showed how the joints are tied close with thread and covered with a plastic wrapping (like saran- wrap). She claims it is better than paraffin or wax. In another room students were being examined in their ability to cut and stain thin sections of plant tissues. They use a razor blade that folds into a metal case (like the old style razors used in shaving). I wonder why there are not more cut fingers but Miss Rojane said accidents were rare. There must have been 25 microscopes - a small Japanese type but with good resolution. The labs were airy, high ceilings,
