NewPath Skin 3-D Paper Model Making Kit - Individual Student Edition (24-7779)

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 Skin that can be used to make predications and communicate their findings to others. Your skin is the largest organ in your body. Using the colorful model, students will gain an understanding of the structure of the skin in a highly interactive way. Through the process of assembling the model, they’ll gain insights into the relationships between the different structures in our skin. The model covers the epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous tissue, germinative layer, dermal papilla, hair follicles, cutaneous nerve, sebaceous gland, arrestor pili muscle, sensory nerves and sweat gland. The kit even includes various skin tones and hair colors so students can personalize their models! 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.
