“Build it and See” A 3D modeling and printing exercise in geometry
by Karen Larsen
This lesson helps students understand the properties of 3D solids from their 2D base shapes and teaches them how to use CAD software to build their own 3D models of real world objects by breaking them down into basic solids or shapes.
