These supplies will allow my student to color code, color, and better visually distinguish through the many topics of biology. It will allow them to personally make a connection to what they are learning by them adding their own “flare” to the topic. My students are very creative and most are very artistic they love drawing. If I can connect science to them by getting them to draw it then I believe that the concept will stick. I will send the supplies home so that my virtually learners will have the same materials to succeed.
