Lesson details
Key learning points
- In this lesson, we will experiment with grouping 3D objects and demonstrate our ability to use our past learning to manipulate 3D objects in Tinkercad. We will then plan our own 3D models of a photo frame which we will develop in the next lesson.

Q1.

24 mm
24.31mm
31 mm
Q2.
What is an advantage for grouping shapes in Tinkercad?
All grouped 3D objects have to be the same colour
The grouped objects will change size
You will need to ungroup 3D objects if any part of the 3D model needs changing
Q3.
Why would this design of a photo frame be difficult to create in Tinkercad?
It does not have straight lines
It does not include enough different shapes
It does not include enough labels
