Cell Nucleus 3-D Model Making Kit

An exciting new way to teach the structure and function of cell nucleus!

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.  

Show your students what makes the nucleus so special with this colorful, fun model.

The model shows that the nuclear envelope is made of a double lipid bilayer, the structure of nuclear pores (or nuclear pore complex), how molecules are transported into the nucleus and that chromatin is made of DNA wrapped around nucleosomes made of histone proteins.

The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models 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.
