East Side Technology Club Weekly Updates

East Side Technology Club Weekly Updates

Week 1-

Welcome to STREM HQ!  We are so excited to be sharing our knowledge with your Stremtists!  We also like to share our knowledge with you so that you can have a great discussion about class with your child/ren.  This week in Technology Club, we explored some of the basics of 2D and 3D modeling.  We had a discussion about:
  • The distinction between 2D and 3D design. 
  • Expanded the X, Y, and Z axis.
  • Took the students through the engineering design process. 
  • Brainstormed to discover what each child would like to ultimately create in 3D and shared with the class.
  • Utilized our computers to show them the most important element in the software while making any 3D project, how to navigate in the software. 
  • Tech 2 was able to move a little further in the software and started to place objects on the 3D plane.

Can we just tell you how amazing and creative your Stremtists are, we're so proud of them!  Stay tuned because we also have a monthly blog.  You can also check out our older blog posts for more fun technical knowledge to share with your child at http://stremhqblog.blogspot.com/!  Remember to email us with any questions at info@STREMHQ.com.


Week 2

Our Tech Stremtists began to edit objects in the 2D/3D software this week.  They learned texture painting as well.  They were challenged to create a Pokeball and use texture color to make it look as true to a real Pokeball as possible.  It's probably no surprise that our Stremtists love Pokémon like everyone else right now!

Week 3

Welcome to STREM HQ!  We are so excited to be sharing our knowledge with your Stremtists!  We also like to share our knowledge with you so that you can have a great discussion about class with your child/ren.  This week in Technology Club, we explored-
  • Adding, subtracting, and intersecting objects on our 2D/3D software.
  • We used multiple objects to make creations of our own.
  • The challenge was to make caves by using subtraction and merging software tools.
