Super fun and engaging 3D class challenge. The goal is to get students comfortable working with 3D software (such as Tinkercad) and allowing them to create something as a community. One of the amazing parts about this is at the end of each year you end up with a new class chess set that you can either give away to students, or keep to inspire the next group of students that you are working with. My students absolutely loved this project and couldn't wait to vote on the winners and for the class

Additional biographical information
Just like you I am often at a loss for how to get through to my students and how to teach what is essentially ends up as multiple grades at once while dealing with a wide range of needs within the classroom. I like to mix up my lessons and have them work in a variety of group settings. My lessons come with slide shows that you can choose to follow (or print out and put under the document scanner) or you can just use them as a guide for the lessons. I also make sure to include a rubric with every assessment. If you ever find an error please let me know. Thanks for stopping by!
