The 5th grade students at Beaufort Academy learned how to use a CAD (computer aided design) application, with help from Ms. Reilly and Mrs. Compton. Tinkercad is a web-based 3D design application that the students used to create bag tags for their book bags or luggage. They mastered many skills, such as measuring in mm, inserting text and shapes, creating negative spaces, grouping objects, and scaling. The 5th graders were very excited about the ability to go from design to print after seeing 3D printing in action at their STARBASE experience last month.
