The 3D World year-end meet-and-greet was a huge success. We had picnic lunch, sprayed bubbles, played football and frisbee, tossed beach balls, played Connect Four, flew kites, raced with an egg in a spoon, and so much more! It is always great seeing the avatars in real life.
Enjoy these photographs and enjoy the summer!

3D World took a trip to Wegmans Supermarket at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Students made real-world connections to one of our in-world locations, Lynnda’s grocery. Students and staff were engaged in doing a deep dive into what it is to be a customer at a grocery store as well as job opportunities for the future. We searched aisle by aisle to get a better understanding of how to shop for the best prices and products for our needs. We discussed and practiced the importance of accuracy when purchasing specific items for a position as a “personal shopper” such as Instacart. Students learned how to use the scale and label printer in the produce section so self-checkout will be a breeze! This was a worthwhile experience for our students, they even got to independently attend the cafe area to purchase lunch from a variety of vendors!
This was the first year we did this, and it was a resounding success.

In February, the students of 3D World took a field trip to the Brooklyn Public Library Grand Army Plaza branch (aka Central branch) to learn what librarians do in real life and to explore the amazing space.
In January, the students of 3D World took a field trip to Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn to see what 3D World’s very own Globo Gym would look like in real life.
