Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 Project

This project will supply a variety of colors of filament for my students to use when we are printing 3-D projects. I had a past donors shoes project for a 3-D printer and a few rolls of filament. My third grade students have loved printing a variety of things. I have loved that they have been able to show creativity and had two problems solved with a new form of technology.

Having a bigger variety of colors will allow for even more creativity with the 3D printer.

My students have big ideas and I love to give them access to the materials they need to make those big ideas of reality.
