TinkerCAD - Day 4

It is the last day! We wrapped up and put the final touches on all of our designs and got them downloaded as STL files and sent them off to the 3D printer. In a couple of hours, our designs will be brought into the physical realm

TinkerCAD - Day 3

At this point, everyone should have at least one design they can work hard on up until the last day. We've gotten some preliminary prints done and with some experience under our belt now, we can continue updating and improving our designs and taken what we've learned onto new designs!

TinkerCAD - Day 2

Today was the 2nd day of TinkerCAD.  We learned the basics and now it's time to design something cool!  Students are working on some cool designs that we can't wait to see finished!

TinkerCAD- Day 1

It is that time of the year again! Time for another TinkerCAD class...and a full one, too. We got some newcomers learning the ropes of 3D design and we cut some veterans loose right away so they could get started with their designs. We're excited to see how these prints turn out!

Hour of Code

We had another large coding session today! We all improved our coding skills on code.org, where we learned about if-then commands, repeat loops, and the importance of clean and efficient coding. We'll be back next month for another Hour of Code class

Robot Club

It is robot time again! We continue on building our 2nd Clawbot while doing some troubleshooting on the one that is already built! We had a newcomer  so we did some
referring back to old blog posts. These blog posts are also used as journal entries to remind ourselves of our progress when we dust off the robots next month.

The Bot is looking pretty good so far!
