Where Imagination Takes Shape

Help me give my students different colors of 3D printer filament so as they learn to use the 3D printer, they will have various color and texture choices of filament to use.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My students are very fotunate to have 2 3D printers in our STEM lab. They are ready to begin designing and creating their own 3D projects. We need a variety of filament and other supplies we can use to enhance our creativity to enable us to bring our ideas to life.

To allow my 3rd-5th grade students to print I must have a large supply of filament and be able to provide them with choices of filament colors.

Being able to design, create, and share projects improves students' emotional health by increasing their confidence in both creating and socially by sharing their creations with the school community.
