My Project

I am always looking for new ways to challenge and provide unique learning opportunities for my students.

3D imaging is an amazing tool to expose students to new learning opportunities while at the same time meeting their unique needs.

The concept of turning 2D drawings into 3D images will become tangible for students in a way that they would not get to experience otherwise. In addition, kiddos will have the opportunity to use their imaginations and creativity in a way that will help prepare them for the 21st century!

Phase 1 – During this phase, students will learn the history and current innovations of 3D printing and learn the 3D printing software. Students have the freedom to choose whatever modality they would like to share what they learned but it must include what technology is used, the history of its development, how it currently works, how the tech has changed over time, and where it is projected to go in the future.

Phase 2 – Working collaboratively in small groups, students create their own board games where all of the game pieces are 3D printed. Next, kiddos will explore Tinkercad as they complete a series of modules to learn all the mechanics and tools needed to build 3D images. A scoring rubric and checklist are provided to help students stay on track and for you to monitor their learning.

Phase 3 – In pairs, students construct their own tabletop pinball machines that include 3D printed obstacles that are designed exclusively by their own imaginations.
