Description

Making a chess set will challenge your design skills in any CAD program. You can also watch a full-length tutorial video HERE.

This walk through includes practice problems in converting inches to cm & mm.

In TinkerCAD you'll explore the advanced shape generator library for unique shapes. You can develop your own style of pieces, or challenge your students to bring in characters from their favorite TV show or video game! This activity will test all your TinkerCAD skills as you use every function available to design your chess set!

To add weight I used eight (1/4"-20 x 3/4" coarse) Hex bolts for the pawns, and eight (1/4"-20 x 2" coarse) Hex bolts for the other pieces. These just inserted into the pieces.

This PDF includes examples of how I built each piece. You can follow this or let your students play with the shapes to build each piece.

The answers for the conversion problems are included on the last page.

CCSS6.G.A.2

Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths of the prism. Apply the formulas 𝘝 = 𝘭 𝘸 𝘩 and 𝘝 = 𝘣 𝘩 to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

CCSS6.G.A.3

Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

CCSS6.G.A.4

Represent three-dimensional figures using nets made up of rectangles and triangles, and use the nets to find the surface area of these figures. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

CCSS6.RP.A.1

Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”

CCSS6.RP.A.2

Understand the concept of a unit rate 𝘢/𝘣 associated with a ratio 𝘢:𝘣 with 𝘣 ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”
