Welcome to the TinkerCAD Design Studio: Crafting Creations in 3D! Prepare to embark on an exciting journey into the world of digital design with TinkerCAD. In this dynamic class, students will dive headfirst into the realm of 3D modeling, unleashing their creativity and honing their design skills with each engaging project. Each session of this weekly program presents students with a new project, allowing them to practice and refine their design skills. As students complete each project, they earn experience points (EXP) and progress through the levels of our epic leveling system, earning prestigious titles and certificates along the way. Topics Covered: Introduction to TinkerCAD: Mastering the basics of 3D modeling through TinkerCAD's user-friendly interface. Shape manipulation: Understanding how to manipulate primitive shapes and combine them to create complex designs. Object customization: Learning techniques to modify objects, apply textures, and add details to enhance designs. Prototyping and iteration: Implementing design iterations and rapid prototyping to refine and improve creations. Creative problem-solving: Applying design principles to creatively solve challenges and bring innovative ideas to fruition. Level-Up System: Students will embark on a journey of progression as they advance through the levels of our TinkerCAD Design Studio: Novice Designer (Level 1) Apprentice Designer (Level 2) Journeyman Designer (Level 3) Master Craftsman (Level 4) Artisan Creator (Level 5) Architectural Maestro (Level 6) Inventor Extraordinaire (Level 7) Design Virtuoso (Level 8) Students' Progression: As students conquer projects and accumulate experience points (EXP), they will ascend the ranks of design mastery. At each level, students will receive a certificate commemorating their achievement and showcasing their progression in TinkerCAD design skills. Join us on this exhilarating journey through the TinkerCAD Design Studio, where innovation and imagination converge to shape the future of digital design!

Parental Guidance
In our TinkerCAD class, students will need to set up an account to access and utilize the platform for 3D modeling and design. Rest assured, TinkerCAD is a trusted and approved third-party tool used for teaching digital design and CAD (Computer-Aided Design) principles.
We prioritize the safety and security of our students' online experiences. TinkerCAD accounts are created with safety features in place to ensure a secure learning environment. We recommend parents/guardians to assist their child in setting up the account and review the platform's privacy settings together.
Supply List
It is preferable and highly recommended to have 2 screens. If that is not possible, a working knowledge of how to navigate from one window to another will be sufficient.
