Creating Dream Houses

As part of our measurement unit, the students are working on creating their dream house floor plan. With this project, they are using a online program called Floor Planner (Google App) that allows them to design a home according to specific dimensions. The students are then going to find the area of each room and the total area of their house. They will then use sample pieces of carpet, flooring, from Home Depot with the unit price to figure out the cost of flooring for their home. Please follow along with us as we document our journey.

The students are having a blast working on this area project. They are able to select their own furniture.
