Due to the support of the Perloff Foundation, our school is fortunate to have three Flashforge 3D printers.
Last year, we used these printers for many different projects and our fifth and sixth graders are using them for their first design project of the year.
For those who are unfamilar with 3D printing, this linked video shares a simple overview of the process and discusses some potential applications for the technology in the medical and other scientific fields.

Our fifth and sixth graders are working on a keychain design project to familiarize themselves with the 3D CAD software tool Tinkercad and the 3D printing process. Working within specific size and design parameters, students are creating their own custom keychains.
Check out some of their work below!
