How the model is used in teaching
The caecum is the blind-ended pouch where the small intestine opens into the large intestine, and the vermiform appendix hangs from it. Because the model is natural size, students can appreciate how small the appendix actually is compared with the caecum.
Opening the model into its two parts shows the wall of the caecum and appendix from the inside. The teacher can use it to explain the junction between the small and large intestine, the role of the large intestine in absorbing water, and why the appendix, which contains lymphoid tissue, is a common site of inflammation (appendicitis).

- Separate the two parts to expose the wall of the caecum and appendix.
