Staying Fresh! 6th graders first steps building skills with 3D CAD. Designing with TinkerCAD and 3D printing. We made bag clips. #WeAreChappaqua #steam @SevenBridgesMS #weare7b @tinkercad

Spool Cars - Design-Engineer-Reflect 3D modeling (TinkerCAD), metal working, laser cutting, fabrication. Cars traveled 20’-45’ powered by a single rubber band. This was a head scratching challenge for 8th graders. #WeAre7b #WeAreChappaqua @SevenBridgesMS #STEAM

Get a handle on safety. Here’s a great idea to keep “that other hand” safe while working with knives. Secure the work and create a safe place to put the other hand. I use clamps. @SevenBridgesMS @dailystem @chappaqua_csd @JennyGieras

6th graders 1st touch with a drill press. Machinery can become safer and more user friendly for beginners with proper jigs and clamping. @chappaqua_csd @SevenBridgesMS @ChappaquaSTEM

Why did birdhouse building ever become so taboo in Tech Ed. Their is so much to learn through this project. High level of excitement and engagement. 1st steps, layout. 6th graders building skills for the STEAM center. Fitting for Earth Day. #weare7b @ChappaquaSTEM @chappaqua_csd

The Seven Bridges STEAM tool cabinet has been built and organized. Complete with a battery charging station. Every tool has an organized and easy to find location. This looks so good I might have to redo the Tech Ed cabinet. @SevenBridgesMS @ChappaquaSTEM @7B_STEAM @chappaqua_csd

It worked! Geodesic (Dome), Isosceles, and Equilateral, Oh My! I created these triangles while building skills with the Laser Cutter and AutoCad. Research that is shaping up to be something big. Lets see what happens next? #weare7b @SevenBridgesMS @ChappaquaSTEM @chappaqua_csd

Tech Ed includes 15 min. of maintenance. Ownership and understanding of the CLRM is cultured. These 2 Ss are gaining experience through repetition as they prepare supplies for Q2. How can Ss learn through the use of your CLRM? @SevenBridgesMS no@chappaqua_csd

Busy day. The big three were all being used today during Tech Class. 3D Printer, CNC Router, and Laser Cutter. @ChappaquaSTEM @SevenBridgesMS @chappaqua_csd #weare7b 🛠

Today a STU used an extension cord as a straight edge. This could be a very creative practice in theory. However when accuracy is needed it is important to use the correct tools. Skill building is so important for a strong STEAM education. @SevenBridgesMS #wearechappaqua #weare7b.

Earlier in the year, Ss worked on a project to improve the courtyards. Top 3 improvements included. 1.wifi.2.places to sit.3.shade.We made a start by building 2 Adirondack chairs with @kristan_pozzuto. Great job 8th graders! More chairs to come next year. #weare7b @SevenBridgesMS
