A student came in wearing eyeglasses missing one temple (the two long skinny parts that go over the ears are called “temples“) and we used the printer pen to “draw” a new temple, which we attached (using the same plastic material) to the frame.

 

Learning to Design with 3Doodler Pens

These young students practiced tracing shapes with their 3Doodler Start printing pens.

Steady, Steady….

We restarted the 3D printing pens-Bubble Wands project again this summer.

Look at this student’s concentration! (With a little encouragement from his amazing para)

Exotic Bubbles

As the STEM 3D-printing bubble-wand-creation activity continues to percolate throughout the district, students are learning and discovering new things about the nature and physics of bubbles.

For example, regardless of the shape of the wand: square, circular, triangular, or heart-shaped —

— or even butterfly shaped —

the bubbles will be spherical.

But what about double-bubbles? Or triple bubbles? Or raspberry bubbles?

Students discovered that wands with split or multiple openings create exotic bubbles.

Also, bubbles can be stretched between two different wands, as long as there is plenty of bubble juice on each wand.

 

Beginner Wands and Next Level

The students of 771K at 236 in Mill Basin Brooklyn enjoyed using the 3Doodler to make bubble wands. One student made all four on the beginner’s sheet:

Then the class teacher took her turn: she made a next-level pony wand!
