Sometimes you want the whole class to examine a model at the same time Using @3dmoleculardesigns.bsky.social models + a document camera, my students figured out protein synthesis by THEMSELVES! Shape = function No worksheets -just models + AWESOME OBSERVATIONS @nysmtp.bsky.social @stanys.bsky.social

More Beta testing of models we dev last summer. Ss 'discovered' the Endosymbiotic theory on their own. Finding similarities between models ss asked "could they be related?" Not pictured are the microscope images used & DNA/Ribosome discussion @3dmoleculardesigns.bsky.social @nysmtp.bsky.social
