Prehistoric Species Project 2018

thingiverse

Students worked on a 7th grade science project, delving into the world of prehistoric animals and crafting detailed reports about their chosen species. They also created three-dimensional models of these ancient creatures, with an emphasis on selecting lesser-known animals rather than relying on familiar favorites like T Rex or Velociraptor. These intricate models necessitated support during printing due to their structural instability, revealing why dinosaurs required lengthy tails for balance. Notably, the models failed to adhere strictly to scale, offering a glimpse into the creative liberties taken by these young scientists. Original project: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2094128
