The markers have become an essential part of our daily lessons, helping students label diagrams, highlight key concepts, and actively engage during class activities. The pencils are used every single day during instruction, note-taking, and assignments, giving students the tools they need to fully participate and stay focused on learning.\r\n\r\nHaving access to these materials has helped my students better understand biology content by allowing them to learn in a more hands-on and interactive way. I have seen increased engagement, confidence, and excitement as they use these tools to explore scientific ideas and think like real scientists.\r\n\r\nThank you to all the donors who made this project possible. Your support is helping grow curiosity, creativity, and a love for science in my classroom.
