"This was a fantastic end of year project. Shopping from IKEA made this a super stream lined activity vs students having to search all over the web for their things. Both my 6th and 7th grade math students enjoyed it and were amazed by how much things cost and how fast their money disappears. "

Great low-prep resource for a budgeting project. Students receive $1,000 to redo their bedroom. They get to go to IKEA and purchase furniture, but MUST stay in the budget.

This was a thoughtfully designed activity. My students are on 1:1 iPads and I learned my lesson that the google slides don't play with with iPad. Also the room layout website wouldn't work on the iPad either. Not the designers fault- but just mentioning it for anyone who may be in the same situation. My kids loved the activity and I was able to modify on the fly and make it work.
