In all other box assignments we are supposed to draw through our boxes, but in the Organic Perspective (Lesson 1) the sample homework does not show the back of the boxes. So can we skip drawing through our boxes for this assignment?

It's intentionally laid out that way - the expectation is that students will learn the benefits of drawing through their boxes in the box challenge - and thus, understanding the nature of those benefits, would (hopefully) apply that technique to the organic perspective boxes.

The reason we don't introduce it in the organic perspective boxes is that we want students to first attempt the exercise without drawing through their boxes, so they can come to appreciate the value of it.

That makes sense, thank you!
