Fueling Creativity: 3D Printing Filament for Student Innovations
Help me give my students the 3D printer filament and supplies they need to turn their imaginative ideas into tangible creations, building skills in STEM, design, and problem-solving.
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
I am incredibly proud of my middle school students' creativity, curiosity, and eagerness to explore new technologies. They are a diverse group of learners who thrive when given hands-on opportunities to apply their knowledge and bring their ideas to life.
The filament we’re requesting will fuel our 3D printers, which are an essential tool for engaging students in STEM learning.
With this filament, my students can create intricate prototypes, design functional models, and solve real-world problems through collaborative projects. From engineering challenges to art and design innovations, this resource will help them develop critical thinking, teamwork, and technical skills that are crucial for their futures.
My goal is to provide them with access to cutting-edge tools that inspire learning, foster creativity, and build confidence in their abilities. My students are special because they embrace challenges with enthusiasm and are always ready to explore, imagine, and innovate. These resources will help unlock their potential and empower them to achieve amazing things!
More than half of students from low‑income households
