Abstract
The use of molecular model in education has demonstrated its importance due to its positive impact on the teaching and learning process. It is obvious that hand-made tools have considerable importance in science education. This study suggests for employing three-dimensional molecular model in teaching and appraising chemistry skills and knowledge in high schools and universities. This paper presents three molecular models for unit cells of cubic system .
