What educators are saying

This resource was great! We used it in our extra learning time with GT students and they had so much fun creating the croc charms. We printed them on our 3D printer and it was great!

Description

In this 3D Croc Charms Tinkercad Project for 3D Printers, students will use the basics of Tinkercad to create a 3D printing file. I consider this lesson to be on an easier level. This could be the first experience students have with Tinkercad. I have successfully used this lesson with students as young as 3rd grade, but works best with middle school students or high school/adult learners as well. This is a perfect project for a coding club or a STEM classroom. You can also use this to teach 3D design to yourself!

Included in this file:

  • 30 Page Teacher Guide
  • Tinkercad Terms and Categories Glossary
  • Over 48 Teacher and Student Slides
  • Student Journal Paper
  • Step-by-step instructions (PDF and Website)
  • Video Tutorial

This lesson includes 1 module

Learn how to create a 3D WORKING Croc Charm and then challenge yourself to create a new design using what you have learned.

In the teacher guide, you will learn how to introduce this software to students. There is a Google Slides for teachers to introduce the STEM Lesson with different constraints. You can also use the slides to go through this lesson step by step WITH students following along. If you would like your students to have more autonomy or would like to use this as an independent lesson, there are step-by-step slides for students, printouts (PDF), website instructions, AND video instructions for students to use as they create their file. Once they have created the file as laid out in the lesson plan, they can use what they have learned to create their own.

You can have students use this lesson to practice with 3D design software, even if you don't have a 3D printer. However, you must have a 3D printer or a way to print out the students' designs if you would like them to have access to the tangible result. If you are looking for an easy-to-use, very inexpensive printer, the Toybox is a great affordable plug-and-play machine that takes very little knowledge to be up and running.
