Description

Models are powerful tools for teaching science as they simplify structures and processes, helping to make the unseen seen and the complex simple. Using the colorful model, your students will get an engaging overview of chloroplasts.

Using the ready-to-use materials provided with each 3-D model set, students first assemble a model to represent a structure or an entire system as an aid to develop questions and explanations. They will then generate data and observations that can be used to make predictions and communicate ideas to others.

Use this colorful, 3-dimensional model of a chloroplast to explore the structure of a chloroplast and how it enables it to carry out the reactions of photosynthesis. The model is an excellent means for showing where the light and dark reactions take place. Covers thylakoids, stroma, grana, intermembrane space, outer membrane, inner membrane, photosystems, electron transport, proton pumps, and ATP synthase.

The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models, working cooperatively, along with a comprehensive Teacher Resource Guide.

Also includes a comprehensive, illustrated Teacher Resource Guide for effective preparation and integration of the models’ use in instruction.
