My 3rd–5th grade gifted and talented students are naturally curious, creative, and full of big ideas. This year, they’re eager to dive into the world of 3D printing—and they’re already asking questions and thinking like engineers! While I’m excited to explore this new learning journey with them, I know I’ll need some extra support to provide the high-quality, hands-on lessons they deserve.
With your help, I’m requesting two $100 Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards so I can purchase engaging, well-designed 3D printing lessons, design challenges, and extension activities tailored for upper elementary students.
These resources will help me guide students through meaningful learning experiences that connect critical thinking, creativity, and real-world problem-solving.
My students are ready to innovate—and I want to make sure I’m ready too. Thank you for helping me learn alongside them and give them the tools they need to design, build, and imagine all year long!
