Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this workbook for students, there are 45 prompts that students use to illustrate biological concepts like protein synthesis, mitosis, photosynthesis and DNA replication. Having students draw concepts after being taught them reinforces what they have learned and internalizes it. Scientists like Aristotle, Agassiz, Van Leuuwenhoek, Haeckel ("Art Forms in Nature") and even Darwin have all demonstrated the importance of "drawing to learn science." With the advent of the STEAM curriculum (where the "A" is for Art), educators are finally seeing the importance of art and drawing in science education as well as in other curricular areas. Colorful student examples or teacher examples are included to help you guide them in the right direction. You will have many different, creative drawings from your students! They have so much pride in their creativity. You can have the students color the diagrams or allow black and white drawings. It is up to you! Have fun!
