Why: A speech pathologist requested these blocks for a non-verbal girl to help her communicate. The blocks would also be used at the adaptive summer camp.

How:  Project core provided the .stl files. I downloaded the files and adjusted settings and fill to make the blocks a good weight but not too heavy. 

Adjustments: I started with 50% fill but changed this to 20% fill. This made the blocks lighter and easier to move around. 

Result: The girl learned to use the blocks to communicate. The blocks are still used at summer camps, where they are praised as a valuable communication tool.
