Building ‘dream houses’

With second-graders

This morning, Connecticut teacher Josh Burker set out a design challenge for his second-grade class: “Design your dream house.”

Josh led his students across a three-part process to complete the assignment:

(1) Measure and map your bedroom

(2) Create a 2D floor plan of your room on a laptop

(3) Make a paper sketch of your dream house and build it with Blokify

If only building a house were this easy ….

Have you used or done something similar?
