3D Printer for Urban Students

Help me give my students a 3D printing experience and propel them into the future.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tadlock's classroom raised $538

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Having a 3D printer will allow my students to plan and create projects. My third grade students will learn how to use the 3D printer and troubleshoot to create objects.

I am excited to see my students' creativity in the planning and execution of 3D printed items.

I am also excited for the students to see this new technology in action.

We will use the filament to learn the steps needed to use the printer. The students will learn how the printer operates and how to troubleshoot when problems arise.
