You can make a much simpler model by taking simple household items to represent the different parts. These are much easier to make, all you need is a cardboard box, cotton and some yarn.
Plant cell model using shoe box
Parts of the Plant Cell How to Make Them
The Plant Cell Take a shoe box and color it green or simply cover it up with green paper (from inside and outside).
Cell Wall The sides of the box itself resemble the cell wall.
Cell Membrane Take some dark green clay and roll it into long rope. Place it on the base of the box along the seam and prepare a boundary.
Cytoplasm Fill up the space within this boundary with cotton to denote the cytoplasm.
Chloroplast Using green clay, model out flat oval discs and attach green beads or buttons onto it. Place these clay chloroplasts evenly on the cotton base.
Vacuoles Roll up a cotton ball about the size of an egg and spray it with some light yellow paint. Place it in one corner of the base but within the clay cell membrane.
Nucleus Take some newspaper or any regular paper, dip it in water and roll it up tightly into a ball. Let it dry. Now, paint it black and allow the paint to dry. Place this ball in the box as the nucleus of your cell.
Mitochondria Model out 3-4 oval-shaped balls using yellow or orange clay and place them throughout the cotton cytoplasm to resemble mitochondria.
Endoplasmic Reticulum and golgi Use some thick black yarn and place it attached to the nucleus to signify ER and place some in the cotton cytoplasm to denote golgi apparatus.
Ribosomes You can add tiny yellow clay balls onto the ER and onto the cotton cytoplasm to show ribosomes.
Toothpicks and name flags Label your cell using toothpicks and name flags.
Learning to make plant cell models is the best way to learn and enjoy biology as well as to perform well in school science fair projects. Hopefully, the aforementioned methods will assist you when it's time for you to make one for your class assignment. As for the teachers, they may use these to show the class how the plant structure looks and how to go about making them at home.
