how to make microorganisms working model – diy simple and easy

In this post we write about making of the microorganisms working model using cardboard and color apper – diy simple and easy

Creating a working model of microorganisms with rotating partitions using cardboard and color paper can be an interesting and educational project.

Let’s build a 3D model that showcases different types of microorganisms with rotating partitions.

Materials needed:

1. Cardboard (for the base and partitions)
2. Color paper (for representing different microorganisms)
3. Scissors
4. Wooden sticks or dowels (for the rotating partitions)
5. Glue or double-sided tape
6. Marker pens or sketch pens

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Base:
   • Cut a large rectangular or square piece of cardboard to serve as the base for the model.
2. Partitions:
   • Create multiple partitions on the base using cardboard to represent different types of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi).
   • Divide the base into sections, one for each type of microorganism.
   • Cut and attach smaller pieces of cardboard vertically to create the partitions.
3. Microorganisms:
   • Use color paper to represent each type of microorganism.
   • Cut out different shapes and sizes for each microorganism and label them accordingly (e.g., spherical shapes for bacteria, irregular shapes for protozoa, rod shapes for viruses).
   • Glue each microorganism onto its respective partition.
4. Rotating Partitions:
   • Attach wooden sticks or dowels vertically to the backside of each partition.
   • Ensure the sticks are long enough to extend below the base.
5. Motor or Rotating Mechanism:
   • Attach a small motor or rotating mechanism (e.g., a battery-operated motor or a hand-cranked mechanism) at the back of the base.
   • Connect the rotating mechanism to the wooden sticks of the partitions so that they can rotate freely.
6. Labeling and Details:
   • Use marker pens or sketch pens to label each partition with the name of the respective microorganism.
   • You can also add brief descriptions or characteristics of each microorganism.
7. Decorating the Model:
   • Use markers or color paper to decorate the model and add more details to make it visually appealing.

Now, you have a 3D working model of microorganisms with rotating partitions made from cardboard and color paper. This model can be a helpful visual aid to understand different types of microorganisms and how they are classified based on their shapes and characteristics
