I made a work flow to convert the icons used in LEGO Spike and Essentials Robotics programs into 3D prints. The rationale is that some students will benefit from holding the blocks physically in their hands prior to moving them about in the coding programs.

We visited a shop that made concept and object indicators out of cardboard (plus whatever the actual object was). These clever cards can be used as prompts, as labels for storage bins, for the visually impaired, for the developmentally disabled, etc.

It would be cool to 3D print them, although they would have to be hand-painted afterwards.
