Day 1

• Begin by reviewing the makeup of an inch.

  • We'll go over the different fractions within, then we'll practice reading measurements.

• After this, we'll finish up our jelly bean towers.

Day 2

This week we will review and practice using the vernier calipers.  

• First, each of you will gather some measurements needed for their locker organizer; you'll record this on a handout provided for you.

• After this, you will create a sketch of your organizer on a piece of paper.  You will submit your sketch to your instructor for review.

• Once your sketch has been approved, you will begin designing your organizer on TinkerCAD

This week we'll try to get our locker organizers printed successfully.  To speed this up, we'll print key parts of the organizer to ensure they are sized correctly.  We will also be working on our water gliders; we will try to print without a raft.

We are continuing to work on 3D printing.  We should all have our locker organizers printed by the end of the week.  After that, you might work on an ornament for the tree, a water glider, or a different print of your choosing.
