In this week’s class we learned about 3D printing and made our own designs. 3D printing can be a great tool for teachers and students. Teachers can make math manipulates, shapes for kids, indigenous letters, and art projects. There are many great ways to incorporate 3D printing into the classroom such as having a sensory corner for kids when they need time to fidget.  

Although there are a lot of benefits there are also some cons. 3D printings material can be extremely expensive and very time-consuming for teachers. In addition, today was my first time 3D printing and I found it quite difficult so I am not sure how younger students would do. Many schools may not have access to a 3D printer. 

“Why you need a 3D printer in your classroom”

My 3D printing design:

Overall, this was very fun to learn and I will use it in my future teaching!

The next recipe I chose to try out is soft pretzels. When I was little my family, and I went to Disney, and I ate so many of these pretzels. I looked at recipes online and I am hoping I will be able to make these. For this recipe it is mostly just dough which is more cost efficient since I have most of the ingredients at home. 

I also decided what fun are pretzels without a dip on the side. I have more of a sweet tooth, so I will try to make a sweet cream cheese dip. 

I will watch this video to learn how to roll the dough and make the pretzel shape!

My goals for this recipe: 

• Learning how to make a yeast dough 

• Learn shaping dough 

• Learn dips to go with my baking goods
