Creating your own Content

Create Your Own Avatar | TinkercadStudents create their own avatar, starting by sketching in 2D on graph paper and then designing in 3D using Tinkercad. They’ll complete an inventory to help them consider physical traits they can choose to include as they design their avatar. Their avatar should visually represent their identity or the fictional character’s identity. Students will then use math skills to compute the area and volume of the 3D character they designed.
