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.

Students will use the colorful parts provide to assemble a graphic model of osmosis and diffusion. They’ll then use it to get an easy-to-understand look at how molecules behave during these critical processes. They’ll also be able to visualize how red blood cells and plant cells are affected by differing osmotic conditions. The model cells even have cell membranes that can shrink or expand!

The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models working cooperatively. The comprehensive Teacher Resource Guide included provides illustrated readings, activities, key vocabulary and an assessment, along with teaching opportunities for students to Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend and Evaluate their understanding of the concepts presented.
