Please take a look at Caroline Schooley’s work at Project
Micro, an outreach of the Microscopy Society of America. There is an
extensive bibliography there, reviewing books, videos and other materials aimed
at school-aged children.

Dear members of the list, We are planning to offer a one
week summer program for 8th and 9th graders on “Optical microscopy and
imaging techniques”. I kindly request your input on any available book or
literature at this level with basic geometrical optics, optical path, image
formation, contrasting techniques including polarization information and any
available easy to understand tools and kits (especially for diffraction
patterns) that could be used for the students to make mini projects.
Thanking you in advance and I greatly appreciate your suggestions and
recommendations.
