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 Coronavirus COVID-19 Structure as an aid to develop questions and explanations. They will then generate data and observations that can be used to make predications and communicate their findings to others. The Coronavirus Structure 3-D Model shows its structure and details what the different components of the structure do. The model includes the viral envelope, RNA genome, spike protein, membrane protein, envelope protein and the enzymes replicase and protease. Through its use, your students will learn about coronavirus structure and life cycle and provide an excellent starting point to discuss the challenges that are caused by novel virus strains. It can also be used as an introduction to general virus structure for all levels of students. 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.
