Learning to Read
3D Printing and Literacy
Season 2023
Episode 24
When kids are allowed to combine technology with reading, they practice literacy in a whole different way. Learning how to operate a 3D printer, even turning it on and off, exposes young readers to technology. It strengthens their analytical thinking too – especially if something doesn’t go as planned! It's also is a great way to make elements of a story come to life in three dimensions.
