NewPath Cell Cycle & Mitosis 3-D Paper Model Making Kit - Individual Student Edition (24-7742)

Models are powerful tools for teaching Science as they provide useful simplifications of structures and processes, helping make the unseen visible and the complex simple! Using the ready-to-use materials provided, students first assemble a model to represent Cell Cycle & Mitosis that can be used to make predications and communicate their findings to others. Introduce your students to the cell cycle and how it is divided into different stages, including mitosis. Your students will begin by making models of cells and chromosomes, they then learn about what happens during mitosis and the cell cycle. In the process, they will look at growth of subcellular structures and replication of DNA during interphase. Next, they learn the steps of mitosis including cell nucleus break down, line up of chromosomes on cell fibers, chromosome separation and nucleus reformation and cytokinesis. Includes enough materials for an individual student to work alone or 2 students to work cooperatively to assemble a paper model. Also includes a comprehensive background information providing opportunities for students to Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend and Evaluate their understanding of the concept. Satisfies NGSS Standards which encourage students to develop & use models to represent structures, systems & processes. Perfect for use at home, in the classroom or lab.
