Product Code: 569666

Description

Product Details
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. It is important to identify blood groups before carrying out a blood transfusion. Show your students how ABO and Rhesus blood groups are identified using antibodies with this interactive model. First, your students make red blood cells and antibodies out of the colorful parts. Then they use their 3-D model to look at ABO blood group testing (A, B, AB, and O) and Rhesus blood type testing. The model shows how antibodies are used to clump (agglutinate) red blood cells together.

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.
