When we all went to asynchronous learning in March 2020, I began my research and this student-side of the website was born. Because my school district used so many platforms that were initially less than friendly for elementary and ELL students, I created this website to store my resources I used for asynchronous learning. I started with this article from Brown University, and built from there.

I like cooperative learning games. I have used something like this made out of laminated paper in the past, so I wanted to see how hard it was to design a prototype for the 3D printer. This is only a 3 inch prototype model because I had to scale it down to fit on my school's 3D printer. That's OK, because prototypes of the second or third try are not generally printed full-scale. As it is shown here, the plus and equals spots are too small to fit a pen or wood pencil, and the squares are too small for the unit squares aka ones blocks in the base ten block manipulatives that are everywhere in most elementary schools. So for demo purposes, we used beads. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2960454 Thingiverse is where my educational designs live. I began publishing this summer as part of the MakerBot Certifications Level 1 User and Level 2 Curriculum Creator. There exists a lot of manipulatives to make for the lower grades, but there are not many lessons that the kids themselves can create, and there are even fewer organized STEM lessons for this age group. To search all of the designs at Thingiverse: http://www.thingiverse.com/ To view my files go here: https://www.thingiverse.com/Heather_M_Miller/designs  These are the first two education approved designs and curriculum. The little blue graduation cap means they are designs that have been approved by the educational team at Thingiverse. |
