3D Printing for Fun

Help me give my students a restock of filament for our 3-D printers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McCauley's classroom raised $217

This project is fully funded

My Project

The students in our 3-D Printing club love 3-D printing things. They love it so much that we need to order more filament for our 3-D Printers. Other teachers in our school also incorporate 3-D printing into class projects, so we have depleted our supply of some colors.

Hands-on experience with 3-D printing is a fun way to encourage students to consider STEM field careers.

Many students at our school fall in to historically underrepresented groups for college attendance and STEM majors, and so the experiences they have with emerging technology at school can quite literally change lives.
