Does this animation use SketchUp Physics as well?

Always fresh style!

Nope, just a fixed background and scenes, no physics.

They're just waiting to be 13 to use sketchup in school
(I make them use it for lots of 3D geometry).
Some of them have donwloaded it and started to use it at home.
I may let them use it this year for some lessons
since they're really asking for it.
Normally I make them use Cabri and Geogebra when they're 11 and 12
for 2D geometrical constructions. You may watch a video here or here (and many more in my channel).There are lots of things to explore about teaching math today.

Here's a video (made by me) of Polyhedrons made by 13-year old students:

This is very cool, you just can't hate SketchUp, everyone loves it
!A year ago (I was a fifth-grader) I did a project for arts in wich I taught the arts-teachers and later on a class of secondgraders SketchUp in a few lessons. After that, the arts-teachers made it a project for the secondgraders, in which they were instructed to model their house in SketchUp and modify it into a big villa.
I haven't got any video or other media of that...
SketchUp is just a wonderful programme, it can be used for all sorts of things in primary school, secondary school, studies and even by professional architects and designers.

Well done Guz,
Your rocket ship transformation is excellent. I imagine the original student artist got hooked on SU after seeing your production.

Guzman That's very cool. I plan to teach a SketchUP course to kids this summer you can see the promotional video here:

Do you have any suggestions or tips for teaching kids in Sketchup?
how do you embed youTUBE videos in your post? I figured it out...thanks to Simon Le Bon and his excellent tutorial here:

Well, kids love sketchup,
so normally it's easy to engage them.
My main advice is to guide them with worksheets so that they have
a precise aim in each lesson.
Put great care in giving them clear and easy to read worksheets.
Introduce sketchup commands very gradually in each worksheet.I normally follow a path that goes from simple polyhedrons (cubes ....)
to everyday objects (tables, chairs, ...) to more complex objects
(both mathematical or real objects).You can check here what they've done last year in 18 lessons more or less.
Models are subdivided in collections according to lessons.guzman.
