In Crawford International Ruimsig new unit, “Where We Are in Place and Time,” our Grade 2 learners were surprised to discover their names individually displayed on a family tree in their classroom! Each class had created their own unique classroom family tree and named them #Buggiefamily, #Disneyfamily, #Fishfamily and #Fuzzlefamily, representing each Grade 2 classroom. It was wonderful for them to see their work come to life!

Unlocking curiosity and a dash of tech-savviness, our #Crawfordians learnt the uses of Tinker CAD – an online 3D design and 3D printing app that allows users to create 3D models easily. The platform offers a range of tools and shapes that users can manipulate to design objects of their choice.

Crawford International Ruimsig High School learners personalized their leaves with their names, which were then 3D printed to form a collection of awesome classroom trees. These trees are more than just decoration; they represent each student’s journey into the unit about family trees and family heritage. Through this project, our Grade 2s are not only developing design, mathematics, and technological skills but also creating deeper connections to their identities and histories.

What an amazing way to learn!
