This project implemented student-made visuals daily in the life science classroom. Students used Play-Doh, white boards, and concept maps to create visuals that reinforced the science concepts. The use of student-made visuals increased understanding and retention for most students, and equally as important, caused students to have a positive attitude toward science.
