Simple Synapses

£5.25

Sold out
Tax included.

Introduce synapses to your class with our easy to make model!

Synapses are the connections between nerve cells. Nerve signals cross the gap in the synapse as a chemical signal.

Our model teaches the structure of a synapse and shows how they use transmitter molecules to cross the gap.

Buy once, print forever!

After making their model, your students use it to look at the structure of a synapse. They then learn how an electrical nerve impulse is converted to a chemical signal and then back to an electrical signal after the synapse.

Includes colourful classroom Powerpoint presentation!

The model covers synapse structure, transmitter chemicals (neurotransmitters), the direction of nerve impulse, chemical and electrical signals.

Takes just 20 minutes!

Dimensions: 26cm x 8cm / 10in x 3in

Download includes: Colour and black-and-white templates, plus a classroom PowerPoint with background science and assembly instructions.

All you need: Paper, scissors and tape.
