3D Design with Tinkercad in 5th Grade

Fifth graders at Howe Manning are collaborating with each other in their Artovation and Innovation classes. They are working on building “Food Trucks'' with a partner using innovative designs and activities. To further extend their project, they are using Tinkercad, an online 3D modeling program, to design some awesome wheels for their cardboard creations! Think of Tinkercad like a digital playground where ideas are brought to life. Mrs. Nasser taught the students how to use different shapes, tools, and colors to design wheels that are just right for the cardboard projects. Once they designed their perfect wheel, it was printed using a Prusa 3D printer, turning their digital creation into a real-life object ready to roll!
