Hello teachers and parents!
This incredible edible project is so much fun to do with students in the winter. Whether it's for the days before winter break while they're wiggly or when they return from the break when they're, well, wiggly, this project will motivate and excite every student.
Don't be fooled by the photos of houses - this project requires A LOT OF MATH! Students will find area and perimeter, draw front and side silhouettes of 3D houses, and multiply, multiply, multiply. This project will take one to two weeks to complete.
