Year after year, students have created a Middle School Inquiry Project on the elements of Matter. They have used Tri-Folds and clay models to help mold and create. I believe those tools are a bit antiquated and should be brought to the 21st Century. Our school has started a Magnet School Program focused on Cyber Security. I want to make students passionate again as they are conducting their research. I want to see the joy of watching what they create take place on the 3D printer since it will directly tie into their project since it is definitely many stages and states of Matter, scientifically. I envision parents, the community, and even our Superintendent attending the final event and seeing what the students have created digitally, and be in complete awe since these are our future leaders. I want them to have no bounds on their creativity.
