My Project

Students who have an interest in careers in veterinary and animal science fields need creative and innovative methods to help them excel in learning scientific applications. My request for donations for model clay and Play Doh, will help my students tactility construct organ models that will assist in studying the anatomy of the organ structures and physiological functions.

I have witnessed the importance of incorporating art with science.

Providing a hands-on approach to learning anatomy and medical terminology, this will add another study tool for students and reduce mental health issues such as testing anxieties when applying their creative skills to studying.
