OH NO! So sorry to hear you ran out of time. The first time is tricky. For me I totally thought they would whip through some of the activities that actually took them forever. I am pleased to hear that you are going to do it again next year. The display it makes is just breathtaking! Thanks so much for your feedback. Have a great day!

My students had a great time working on the Getting to Know You Dodecahedron at the beginning of the school year! They
couldn't wait to do their own Thanksgiving Dodecahedron. My 5th graders loved it and couldn't wait to take them home to share with their families. They asked if they could do a Holiday Dodecahedron. I told that I would have to check with Mr. Hughes! :)
Thank you for your great products!!

Your feedback made my whole day. I am SO pleased that your students have enjoyed making the dodecahedrons. Tell your students that ABSOLUTELY there is going to be a holiday edition. In fact, you will have two or three choices! My mini-dodecahedron ornament kit was just added to my shop yesterday, I have started on a full-sized holiday edition, and I hope to get one to two more holiday versions added. So... you will have to choose which one to do!
I appreciate your kind words so much, and tell your students hello for me. Can't wait to hear how it goes with the holiday edition.
Have a fantastic day and please stop by again soon!

Great idea! Got lots of ooohs and aaahhs from my 5th graders. Perhaps you could make a dodecahedron project as a general book report to be used for any novel and/or a blank template so that teachers can personalize it to our needs? Thank you!

Thank you for a fun project that touches on so many different academic areas. We are out early all week for parent-teacher conferences so this will be a great project for them to work on while we are in one of those weird times where we've wrapped everything up but do not have enough time to start our next unit.

How long does it take to complete the project?
November 13, 2012
MrHughes (TpT Seller)
Greetings! Thanks for asking this fantastic question!
I have usually spent 3-4 days at 20-30 minutes per session (5th/6th grades). Really it depends on the age of the students. 3rd graders maybe longer, 6th grader usually faster. Totally worth it though- they learn SO much and practice many academic skills.
Hope that answered your question. Let me know if you have additional questions!
