Simple Plant Cell 3-D Model Making Kit

A fun introduction to plant cells for learners of any age!

Models are powerful tools for teaching science because they provide useful simplifications of structures and processes, helping to make the unseen seen and the complex simple.

Students will enjoy learning about plant cells with this colorful model. The model covers all the main parts of plant cells (cell membrane, cell wall, chloroplasts, nucleus, chromosomes, mitochondria). For more advanced learners, you can extend the model with optional organelles (rough ER, smooth ER, and Golgi).

Students first assemble the plant cell model using the colorful parts. Then students can enhance the model and use the optional organelles to show more features. 

The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble a 5 paper model 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.
