Teach how carbon dating works with our paper model!

Carbon dating (radiocarbon or carbon-14 dating) is a method to calculate the date of old biological samples. It can be used to date a sample of dead material up to about 60,000 years old. The technique dramatically helped archaeology as it was possible to accurately date samples for the first time.

Buy once, print forever!

Your students make their paper models out of the colourful parts. They then use their models to learn about carbon isotopes and how carbon-14 is formed in the upper atmosphere by cosmic rays from nitrogen.

Next. they learn how carbon-14 enters the food chain and how it's radioactive decay is used to date old materials in carbon dating.

Includes colourful classroom Powerpoint presentation!

Takes just 30 minutes!

Dimensions (diameter of carbon atom): 6cm / 2.5in

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