A.MAIN INFORMATION: 1. Why should teachers use educational materials in the classroom? I suggest teachers use this resource because, as is known, the materials greatly facilitate the children's learning process. As is known, children, when they are in the learning stage, require the use of the most varied possible amount of educational materials that are attractive to them. Especially those that are manipulable and concrete, as the great Jean Piaget once expressed, given that children learn through manipulation and thus learning is more lasting than that which is verbal. 2.

This document can be applied in teaching children's reading and writing. 7. Should I apply it individually or in groups in my class? I suggest making the effort to have each child have their own set of flashcards . That is, I suggest that you work on this activity with the children individually. B. SECONDARY INFORMATION: 8. What size and format is this resource in? This document is available in A4 size, and in PDF format. 9. Do I need some extra elements to apply it? Yes, if you want these primers to be durable, I suggest laminating or laminating them using a laminating machine or adhesive tape. 10. Is it in color or black and white?

PDF file with TinkerCAD step-by-step instructions for 3 different whistles with 32 pages. I have used this instructions with students as young as 5th grade and as high as 12th grade. The 5th graders needed some help and guidance but middle schoolers and high school students usually did not need any help at all. 5th and 6th grade classes took about 2 hours to finish the project. Middle schoolers took about 1 hour, and high school students took about 30-40 minutes to finish. The referee whistle works like a regular whistle. The slide whistle works and make different sounds be sliding the insert back and forth to make different pitches. The train whistle works by having different lengths of hollowed out tubes which generate different pitches. Very detailed instructions. Students are expected to be familiar with TinkerCAD, and know the basics. There is a TinkerCAD tool guide within the instructions to aid in learning TinkerCAD.
