The use of 3D printing pens in the classroom is an innovative technique that allows the expression of students’ imagination and creativity in a playful and enjoyable way. At the same time, it cultivates children’s fine mobility, contributes to the visualization of objects by representing them in space as well as to the development of strategies for finding solutions in construction. The result of their application in the 3rd grade of our school is impressive!! 

Also, students learn to design and to experiment with Tinkercad. They use a lot of tools enabling them to test  and improve upon their creations.

By 3D printing, students gain analytical skills- they interpret the size, shape, movement and relationships between objects. 

Furthermore, the students of 6th grade used the 3D printed letters for fun and learning with the youngest of  the 1st grade, adopting practices that promote cooperation, solidarity and cohesion within the school.
