3D Printing in the Third Grade!

Help me give my students the joy of 3D printing! We are running out of filament and still have many more projects to print!

My Project

My kids are amazingly creative! When they learned that they could take their drawings and ideas and bring them to life through 3D printing, they could not wait to get started.

As a STEM teacher, it is my goal to have many of my students take home a 3D printed project that they created.

This year I have sent home over 100 projects in grades 3-6, and I hope to finish at least 50 more before the year is out; however, I am running out of filament! Next school year I hope to expand the project to include 2nd grade as well!
