3D Printing Starts!

10/25/2017

 
So sixth graders have started to learn Tinkercad and are beginning to 3D print things!  They're working simulataneously on two projects and are about to start a third.

1.  Everyone has designed a personalized keychain.  This was our first crack at using the printer, and it's off to a great start.  There have certainly been some fails, and that's okay!

2.  Some students are working on 3D printing sun-moon-earth models to show the application of the light models we've developed in class.   

​Check back soon for an integrated science/literacy project!  Students will be creating videos of plays they write in language art.  Must-haves in their video include the use of 3D printed props and filters which will change the mood of the play!
