No planning required! This PBL comes with a 32-slide presentation introducing the major concepts, elements, and procedures of architecture. Students will then use the elements and process to answer research questions (resources provided), plan, sketch, build, present, and reflect on their dream treehouse! This bundle comes with a 12-page paced guide for students, with teacher signoffs on every step.

Use these for SEM-R (School-wide Enrichment Model for Reading), small groups, book reflection questions, or in whole group. With over 100 higher-order thinking questions, teachers can easily organize questions based off focus standards AND questions dependent on where you or your students are in their book. With each focus standard, you will find 3 text-dependent questions to give when students are in the beginning of their book, 3 for middle, 3 for end, and 3 for after the book. SEM-R Suggest

Encourage students to create their own higher-order thinking questions that spark discussion. With this tool, students learn the difference between short-answer and open-ended questions, the importance of open-ended, and how to craft their own.

Students will embark on an exciting PBL that incorporates creativity, problem solving, research, collaboration, model making, and engineering to invent their own game board! No preparation required, just print the packet and let them go.
