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 use the colorful parts provided to assemble a model of osmosis and diffusion for 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.
This model-making kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models working cooperatively. The included comprehensive teacher resource guide 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.
