Animal Groups Matching Educational Aid
Animal Groups Matching Educational Aid

This model is an educational aid for learning the different animal groups. The main piece is the board with other supporting/matching prints made of animals that fit into these categories. I have not included the files to the animals but I would consider the animals from the following creators:
Dove - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:182132
Turtle - www.thingiverse.com/thing:619805
Fish - www.thingiverse.com/thing:2057101
Butterfly - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:35938
Frog - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3302391
Rabbit - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3708223
This educational aid could be used for any age but is designed with elementary grade students in mind.
This particular aid isn't currently avaliable to purchase but a similar aid was found to be $30 (Link Here). This item could be printed for a fraction of the cost if a printer and filament is already on hand. Roughly 12 meters of filament is needed to print a scaled version of this (45% scaled).
12/332.60m= ~4%
This project (excluding animals) takes roughly 4% of a roll. And using current prices for 1.75mm PLA filament from Matterhackers that would be 4% of $20. Which is roughly $0.80. So if a printer and filament is available then this project will cost substantially less than something that can be purchased.
If printed too small the animal group names may not print well just because of the thin size.
