When looking to do the traditional Gingerbread House measurement activity needs to be digitized -- look no further! Here you will have a Digital Gingerbread House measurement aligned to your 6th Grade Geometry standards.

This is all built through Google Slides and meant for students to work independently OR in groups though breakout rooms to digitally measure measure a gingerbread house and then calculate the surface area and volume.

Students will be linked to a secondary set of slides if you choose to use the digital gingerbread house template. These slides provide a ruler for students to move around to measure the pieces.

This link can be removed to allow students to measure their own gingerbread house pieces if using a physical kit.

Additional challenge (Slides 8-10) contain an opportunity for students to scale their Gingerbread House up by making each of the dimensions 4 times larger and think about how the Surface Area & Volume compare to that of the original measurements.
