1. Using Models
in Science

2. Some Models show us things that are far too small to see
Like DNA

3. Some models help us to visualize (see) things that are
too LARGE for us to see,
or bring into a lab or a classroom
Like the solar system

4. Some Models have pieces that are removable
So we can see how things “fit together”.

5. Some models are very LARGE and
Very expensive.

6. Some Models are very Inexpensive
…..but icky

7. There are LARGE models
Of LARGE things
Like the
earth and moon

8. And, there are small models of small things.
Like Atoms

9. Some models allow us to test our designs.
Like bridges made from noodles

10. Some models are ……. edible
Like this “Sun” cake made by 2nd graders

11. Models help us to understand the world around us.
How things work
How they interact with each other
How they move or fit together

12. Models help us SEE the un-”see-able”
And
TOUCH the untouchable
Models ROCK!
