Plant Cell Model
Reviewed By: Katie Lannom 
I have to agree that this model is good for hands on explorers. It is a concrete to semiconcrete model to help learn the plant cell. I also like how one side labels and the other side does not. It is a great use for assessment. My friend said that these models would make science fun for those who are not as usually interested.

Good for hands-on learners
 
This model helps those hands-on learners to grasp what makes up a cell. I liked that one side is labeled and the other side is not. This gives you more flexibility in quizzing your students. The fact that the model is made of strong foam is plus for me--it means that the model won't break when it gets dropped on the floor!

Plant Cell Model
 
While this model is low tech (made of soft foam and with no removable parts), I was surprised at the eagerness with which my sixth grade students waited for their turm to use it. It was a different approach than viewing the 2-D model in their textbooks, as it satisfied the needs of the kinestetic learner and made significant the differences in shape and organelles when compared to the animal cell model, which I also purchased. I found it a worthwhile investment.

Plant Cell Model
Reviewed By: Susan Kidd 
I home school my daughter and the model of the plant cell made what I was trying to teach her come alive. On paper it was just a drawing but to be able to hold it in her hands and physically see the cell membrames, walls etc was amazing. Many times science is so dry but with the cross section hands on ability she now has an excitement that we want as parents and teachers for our children to develop.
