Description

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

Using a colorful, interactive model, students will gain an understanding of the digestive system and is processes. First they’ll assemble their digestive system model. They’ll then use your model to identify the parts of the digestive system including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, gallbladder and pancreas. The innovative model even includes an open channel so they can see clearly how food moves through the digestive tract!

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.
