3D Design!


Happy April!

The students are beginning work with Tinkercad and their 3D Designs! Our first design is going to be something that serves a purpose.

There were some other restrictions on the project as well:
  • Includes name
  • Includes at least 3 shapes
  • Maximum dimensions: 6 cm (length) x 6 cm (width) x 2 cm (z-axis (tall))
Example: keychain, bookmark, magnet, necklace pendant

Tinkercad is an easy-to-use web site that uses a library of 3D shapes that can be manipulated in many directions. Then, you can download the file for the 3D Printer!

We are excited to have a new 3D Printer in the classroom this year. Hopefully, it will help us get our prints faster.

I look forward to seeing what the kids will make!
