My Students

My students are kind. They work hard to understand new concepts, and the do a great job wearing masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19. They are innovative and willing to learn new concepts especially ones that are hands-on and where they can use the design process.

My Project

Support STEM, inquiry, and creativity for your 5th grader. This 3D Printer will allow students to use the design process to invent and test needed personal protective equipment and other products. Students will be able to define a specific need at school or in our community, design a product the will fulfill that need, test the product to determine it the need is fulfilled, refine the product if necessary, and produce the product for our school or community. Using the design process with a specific purpose will inspire creativity and produce a product that can benefit the entire community.
