A Building Project
As we near the end of our measurement unit in math, I looked for a project that would incorporate what we have learned and make some connections to work we have completed.
This project includes opportunities to practice:
- Drawing a bird’s eye view of your structure like we did for our room floor plans (Math, Visual Arts & Core Competencies)
- Different ways you could measure your structure (Math & Core Competencies)
- Creating a background (Visual Arts & Core Competencies)
- Using our creative and critical thinking skills (Core Competencies)
It also allows us to try something new:
- Create a story about your structure that includes a setting, characters, problem & solution (Language Arts, Core Competencies)
- Use technology to record/tell your story
Our challenge this week comes from the Richmond School District…Structures
Can you create a tower, bridge or building using materials you find at home?? I would love to see any work you do on this week-long project.
