This lesson is an introduction to CAD, possibly leading up to 3D printing. The idea is to be familiar with CAD and more specifically the TinkerCAD application.
Grades:
6th Grade
This lesson takes place in a classroom over two weeks. Students may work in small groups of 2-3. Prior to the robotics challenge, teachers should facilitate student discussion through guided lessons
Grades:
8th Grade
Students will use knowledge of translation, rotation and reflection to create unique 3d designs. Students will be designing backpack tags using geometry principals on graph paper, then transferring
