Math In 3 Dimensions with Table Top Inventing
Hey TTI Family,
Hope you are having a great week! I just wanted to share some math insights with you….. and let you know how awesome you guys are!
Debby just wrote a great post about using 3D printing in Math. We love using 3D design and printing with kids because it helps bring the book math they are learning in school to life. Make sure to check out the project by Fred Hohman. You’ll find Debby’s post, “Math- In Three Dimension!” here.
If you have questions about inventing, using 3D printers in the classroom, addressing STEM outcomes with MakerEd, or other Ed Tech issues, just reply to this email or join us on Thursdays, 4pm PT, 7pm ET in the TTI Educators FaceBook Group for an online chat. Just post that you’ll be able to attend and follow here for meeting info:
