Students are able to quickly go over and cut something with the saw and head right back to their project. In the past, they would spend endless class time cutting and preparing materials for their projects, that they would run out of time to create and have to work on it the following week. Adding this tool to the remix helps them to continue the momentum of their creativity and jump right back into working on their project. \r\n\r\nThis spring 5th graders create a cardboard arcade that include games they have invented and created.
