About This Item
Description
Models are powerful tools for teaching science as they simplify structures and processes, helping to make the unseen seen and the complex simple. Using the colorful model, your students will get an engaging overview of processes of translation and protein synthesis.
Using the ready-to-use materials provided with each 3-D model set, students first assemble a model to represent a structure or an entire system as an aid to develop questions and explanations. They will then generate data and observations that can be used to make predictions and communicate ideas to others.
Ribosomes are the factory workers of the cell! Your students will build their own model ribosome out of paper that they can hold in the palm of their hand. They will then use the model to make a peptide from five amino acids using transfer RNAs (tRNA) following a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence. Through the process, they’ll gain an understanding of translation, protein synthesis, codons, anticodons, messenger RNA (mRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA)!
The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models, working cooperatively along with a comprehensive Teacher Resource Guide.
Also includes a comprehensive, illustrated Teacher Resource Guide for effective preparation and integration of the models’ use in instruction.
