Distance Learning: Recycling Renovations Tiny House Math Project

Students were excited to explore and share their knowledge with their peers when working on the project.

This resource is perfect to extend learning for students!

Awesome product, thank you!

I left this activity for students to start with a substitute, but then gave them a few more class periods to work on it. I started by drawing interest using a video of a kid who had built his own tiny house. The kids really loved seeing him tour his house, and were excited for this project. They did really well overall. This was for an 8th grade "reteach" or intervention type classroom, so building foundational skills like operations with fractions and solving word problems is super important. This project did just that and also gave students the opportunity to see how math is used outside of school.

It was a fun resource!

I cannot wait to use this resource with my students the last couple weeks of school!

I tried using this resource during the early months of CoVID online schooling. I wasn't as successful as I had hoped to be, but do NOT blame this resource. I had some organizational and technological issues that prevented it being a success. I hope to give it a go again next term.

My students really enjoyed the assignment
