My Dream Room Area and Perimeter Project

Created by

Teach Create Shine

What kid doesn't want to create their own dream room?! In this project, the students will reinforce their learning of area and perimeter by connecting it to a real-world application. I have the project planned for three days, but it usually takes about a week as they add details to their rooms. You'll need to assemble the book included in the download for them. In addition, you'll need to purchase several medium-sized packing boxes. When cut & taped, each box yields 8 "rooms" (the corners

Bridges Calendar Grid & Work Place Displays

Feeling like the Calendar Grid cards for Bridges in Mathematics are super drab? I was too! 😉 My love for coordinating décor combined with the fact that I was not digging the Calendar Grid display cards made me design my own! In addition to “cute-ifying” my Calendar Grid, I also wanted a dedicated space for my Work Places so the students always knew where to put them. 🚨 It’s important to note that the main pages are formatted to 11x17 sized (Tabloid) paper!

Additional biographical information

I married my high school sweetheart in June of 2007. We welcomed our first son on Halloween 2012! We welcomed our second son on Cinco de Mayo 2015. We also just brought a micro-Bernedoodle into our family! My sons and I are all at the same school and my husband teaches music at a state university. In my free time, I love being a mommy, a wife, and creating resources! Living in NC offers incredible opportunities for hikes and playing in the snow too! I've wanted to be a teacher since I was *very* young! My inspiration early on was to win a Disney's American Teacher Award. Though the award is no longer given, I try to live up to the ideals for which it stood. ✏️ Follow TeachCreateShine on TPT • https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/store/teach-create-shine ✏️ Follow TeachCreateShine on Instagram • https://www.instagram.com/teachcreateshine/ ✏️ Follow TeachCreateShine on Pinterest • https://www.pinterest.com/teachcreateshine ✏️ Follow TeachCreateShine on LinkedIn • https://www.linkedin.com/in/maureenbeyt-TCS ✏️ Follow My Blog! • https://www.teachcreateshine.com/
