My Project

I am looking to revamp my curriculum for next year. I want to introduce fourth graders to the world of 3D printing. Students will explore 3 big science units: volcanoes, animal features/adaptations, and energy/circuits.

We will be exploring these topics with lego robotics, coding apps, and other resources.

As students investigate, we will have contests and create a few 3D models of some of their projects. It will be great to showcase their work around the school. Students will love this addition to our classroom.

It would be nice to bring their creativity to reality!
