3D Tools for 3D Thinkers

Help me give my students the opportunity to create objects using a 3D printer, a 3D pen, and filament.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kirkindoll's classroom raised $755

My Project

In a classroom full of innovative thinkers, I want my students to have the opportunity to create what their brilliant minds imagine.

We focus on communication, entrepreneurship, engineering, and robotics, and having a 3D printer would give my students the opportunity to use those skills.

My first graders have huge imaginations and very inquisitive minds. They are gifted in the area of electronics and robotics. This printer would provide them with many opportunities to create and practice programming/coding. My students have expressed a huge interest in learning how to use a 3D printer. I would LOVE to give them that opportunity!
