Some students may choose to build and create between classes. This will be supported during a show and tell time at the beginning of class.Assessment
No formal assessment unless requested by the learner or their adult. Informal assessments on progress and areas of improvement will be made so the teacher can focus feedback and quick demonstrations to helps learners improve their skills with TinkerCAD.Class Experience
In this course, learners will have the opportunity to build and share their creations made in TinkerCAD with each other and the teacher. There will be no directed builds, but rather learners will be invited to share their work or ideas for builds and ask questions to the teacher about TinkerCad or invite other learners to make suggestions or give feedback on their models. Learners will utilize the Harvard Protocol to offer each other feedback in a positive way. Learners are welcome to discuss other topics and interests as part of the class. Each week there will be a theme for learners to create if they choose, however, learners can build and share outside of the theme if they desire as creativity is encouraged. Week 1 July 4th: Landmarks Week 2 July 11th: Personal Penguins Week 3 July 18th: Vehicles Week 5 July 25th: Movie inspirations
Learning Goals

Parental Guidance
Because this is a social class learners will be encouraged to discuss topics of interest. Effort will be made to help learners advocate for themselves and to keep an open and inclusive mind. However, since the topics will be student lead there may be topics of disagreement. Mrs. Fimbel has taught for over 10 years and is skilled at keeping topics appropriate. However, it is recommended you speak with your learner about how to speak up if they feel the topic is not appropriate or unsettling to them.
