Fourth grade art students have created virtual 3D models of sailboats in a landscape with Sketch Up for Schools computer-aided design (CAD) software on Chromebooks. Students created their sailboat structures by making and altering geometric shapes. Students made copies of their boats and colored them. They then drew landscapes which include bodies of water. After placing their boats on the water, the boats were sized and rotated in accordance with students' intentions for their designs. Steps in the construction of the boats are shown below in a CAD design by Mila Wilson, whose final work also appears here.
