Animal and Plant Cell Construction Kit

Make a Model of an Animal or Plant Cell Making models of animal and plant cells is a middle school science activity that has become more accessible than ever with the power of 3D printing. Students can now create custom cell models by adding a hole to make it into a keychain, decorating it with paint or markers, or even just experimenting with different organelle placements. To get started, simply open the Animal and Plant Cell Construction Kit file on Tinkercad.com. This comprehensive resource contains all the parts students need to create their cell models, making it easy for them to start building. If you prefer a more personalized approach, you can also download individual components from Tinkercad.com and assemble them in your preferred CAD program. Here's a Quick Guide on How I Designed My Cell Models I made sure to share the easiest way for students to create their cells - simply searching and opening the file Animal and Plant Cell Construction Kit on Tinkercad.com (https://www.tinkercad.com/things/16LCR7J32Wf). The file contains all the parts necessary, and with a little arrangement and customization, students can produce printable models. Students can utilize arrow keys to relocate pieces into their correct positions without needing to resize or lift them off the workplane. Here are Some Additional Tips: To create cells easily and effectively, make sure you copy and duplicate organelles, rotating them for added visual interest. Keep in mind that the NGSS requires this project be done with your grade level science classes and use standards below to meet lesson objectives: Project: Animal and Plant Cell Objective Students will design and print a 3D model of an animal or plant cell. Objectives: Students are supposed to build their own cells from the Tinkercad website in which you'll find two sets of parts for both cell types. Use copy and duplicate function as necessary, so when finished with your models just hit delete all of unwanted pieces and print out models using 3D printer. The class made it easy for us, now use your paint or markers if needed.
