Model Creation Activity
Follow the steps to build your very first 3D model!
🎯 The 4-Step Maker Process
- Plan — Decide what you want to make before you start. Draw it first!
- Gather — Collect the clay, cardboard, or blocks you will need.
- Build — Put your model together step by step. Take your time!
- Check — Does your model look like your plan? If not, that's okay — improve it!
🏗️ Today's Build Challenge
Build a simple house using any materials available:
- Use a rectangular block or cardboard box for the walls
- Use a triangular piece (folded cardboard) for the roof
- Add a small square for the door and rectangles for windows
⚠️ Remember
It doesn't need to be perfect! Real engineers build, test, and fix. If your roof falls off, that's just a chance to make it stronger. Keep trying!
🧠 This Is Engineering!
When you plan → gather → build → check, you are following the same steps that real engineers and architects use to design buildings, bridges, and machines. Welcome to engineering! 🏗️
