Description

Models are powerful tools for teaching science as they provide useful simplifications of 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 the human brain.

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.

Using the colorful parts provided, students assemble a model of the human brain, then learn about its structure and components. In the process, they will cover the cerebral hemispheres (cerebrum), frontal lobes, temporal lobes, parietal lobes, occipital lobes, cerebellum, pituitary gland, optic chiasma, pons, and medulla oblongata.

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.
