The students in my class are currently part of a Title I school in South Carolina. We have a diverse group of students that love to learn and use technology.
The students in my school come from a variety of backgrounds.
Many students are English language learners. Most students come from high poverty areas resulting in many students not having technology access in their homes. They receive most of their technology experiences at school or through community outreach programs.
My Project
Students will use the 3D printer I am asking for to design sculptures to integrate art and technology. My class will work closely with the Art teacher to design their art and then come to Technology to finish their sculptures.
The 3D printer will also be used in other areas of ELA, Science, and Math to provide meaningful experiences to reach the goals of Common Core.
This project will provide engaging experiences and skills that will help them not only in my classroom, but for the rest of their life!
My students will love to have a 3D printer in our classroom so that we can create, design, and build sculptures.
