3Doodler Art Pens to Make Science 3-Dimensional!

Help me give my students a set of 3-D art pens to use during Science classes!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Richardson, Ed.S.'s classroom raised $751

This project is fully funded

Celebrating 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 Students

I teach in a small, cozy neighborhood elementary school in Virginia. The children in my building are lively and great kids. They appreciate and evolve from positive, but firm motivation and are very bright when focused and interested. We were named a National Blue Ribbon School in 2006. Our school was recently renamed in June of 2018.

I love teaching grades Pre-K through First, because kids at these stages are so enthusiastic and happy to learn!

I feed off of their enthusiasm and it makes me want to provide them with even more innovative learning experiences!

My Project

I have always been interested in 3-D printing.

It is just fascinating to me that a machine can recreate anything one can think of, using a simple chemical mixture.

Although I am currently teaching online, I am constantly thinking about the future and how class will look when we return to face-to-face.

I think for one thing, everyone will have eye fatigue so I want to cut down on a lot of screen time and focus more on projects.

These 3-D pens would be great for Science projects, such as recreating parts of a plant, soil layers, and the water cycle.

I am really excited to see my kids use these!

Thank you for reading.
