Students in M. Siaux' grade 4/5 class explored various animal biomes, conducting in-depth research to understand the unique creatures that inhabit them. Using this knowledge as inspiration, they then harnessed the power of a 3D printer to design and create entirely new, imaginative animals, such as the Arctic Scorpion and the Desert Beaver. This hands-on project combined science, creativity, and technology to spark curiosity and deepen their understanding of the diverse ecosystems around the world.
