Help me give my students the chance to do hands on labs that will help expand their knowledge of biology content and allow them to connect with real world concepts.

My Project
We will be discussing the structure and function of cells. Students will use microscopes to view different types of cells and see how DNA is apart of cells. We have been discussing the history and parts of a microscope. Students will need to know how to use a microscope correctly and then they can get hands on experience using microscopes on their own. We are also going to dive into the genetics and DNA. The DNA models that I am ordering will give them the change to better grasp the how DNA works and the different things that cause changes to DNA.
I also teach a biomedical science class where we can use the same material to see how it applies in the biomedical field.
The goal of my biomedical class is to expose student to different careers that they may want to pursue after high school. Student take that class as an elective and I have 9th through 12th grade students who will be able to utilize the materials to learn.
My students will be excited to get these items! Thank you for any help you can provide to our class.
