I am completely CASEing this from a fellow cardmaker, Tommi, on the OWH facebook page. I thought it was so clever when I first saw it. I figured it would sit in the back of my mind for awhile UNTIL I saw these flip-flops at Michaels. I quickly snagged them with my 50% off coupon and came home to play. Once again, a GREAT use of scraps! And the "sand" is rice paper that my mentor Barb gave to me over a year ago. The whole card is mounted on white, which doesn't show well here but let me tell you... it is gorgeous in person! I tried other colors for the background but white just made it swim. Get it, swim... And so begins our plunge into summer...

Small living rooms can be a P.I.T.A. Especially long narrow ones. It often feels like you’re playing Tetris; trying to maneuver a beefy couch next to a an even beefier chair. You lug and push until you’re too exhausted to care and you just leave your furniture any old way to avoid more stress. After a couple of weeks of “living with it,” you look at it and you know there’s a better way to arrange it so, on you go again, lugging and pushing, micro-positioning and tweaking angles ever-so-slightly…

If you’ve been watching TV or reading magazines, chances are you've seen a tiny house. These little homes are everywhere...and now, we're asking students to make their own 3D version! Build A Tiny House is a project based learning (PBL) activity that'll put the designing into the hands of the students. Students will dive deep to show they understand the how (and why) math concepts such as area, perimeter, and geometry are used in building a home. This project integrates multiple elements such as problem solving, collaboration, design, and planning that connect concepts across multiple platforms. ***THIS RESOURCE IS NOW DIGITAL!*** There is a link to a Google Slides Version. Details below. The objective of this project is for students to design and build a TINY HOUSE, while applying area, perimeter, and geometry skills. This project based learning activity also focuses on designing elements, using multiple problem solving skills, and collaborating in the classroom. It allows for easy differentiation, so students can work at a pace they will be successful at. With this resource students WILL CREATE a miniature 3D version of a tiny house. The size of the houses will all be the same, but each student will create a unique version based on their own ideas, imagination, and application of skills. Build a Tiny House asks students if they can design a house that contains almost 20 different pieces of furnishings (all in one place) and then find the area and perimeter of each item after they have done so. They’re also asked to apply geometric skills; such as shapes and even developing their own nets to create furniture.

UNIT MEASUREMENT: The measurement used for this project will be a single unit per cube. You may choose to increase complexity by making each cube worth more. Use this with students to easily differentiate. Example: 1 square = 3 units or 1 square = 5 units There are no feet, yard, or meters. Materials Needed -computer paper -card stock (optional for the house building) -crayons and colored pencils -scissors -tape and glue TIME FRAME The time frame for completing this project will vary greatly. If you are planning on completing it in a week, give 45-60 minutes per day. All students will work at different rates, but by the end of the week students should be finishing the required steps (1-8) or trying some of the additional tasks. OPTIONAL MATERIALS -books or magazines on building houses -videos that show tiny houses from internet (or maybe a HGTV show) -videos that merge math and housing together (search Youtube) ENCOURAGE CREATIVITY Push your students to try new ideas.
