# Sculpture

Subject Area: Art

Learning Objectives: Students will learn basic principles of CAD and sculpture design.&#x20;

Materials Needed: One computer, modeling software, one Micro or Micro+ 3D printer, and at least one 250ft spool of 3D Ink per 2-5 students.

Brief Description: Students will use modeling software to design and print a 3D printable sculpture.

To Prepare: Students will need a computer that has the M3D software on it. We recommend one printer per every 2-5 students. The Micro or Micro+ 3D printer will need to be plugged into both the wall and the computer. Each printer will need to have a spool of 3D Ink feeding into the external port. A spool holder is also recommended.&#x20;

If you need assistance with any of the above please see our guides at support.printm3d.com.&#x20;

Lesson Plan:&#x20;

1\. Either individually or in small groups, students will use modeling software to design a unique sculpture.\
2\. Students will then print out their sculptures.\
3\. Students can paint their sculptures if they’d like.&#x20;
