Your child’s first project is to build a 3 dimensional model of his/her home with as many details as possible. They will then write a few sentences describing why the house is built and set up that way. Completed projects are due on Tuesday, November 23rd. Your child will be presenting their project on Wednesday, November 24th. Please have your child practice reading their report at home to ensure their confidence when they are presenting it to their classmates.
Please use a poster board or cardboard to build on. You can use construction paper, popsicle sticks, shoeboxes, backyard materials, whatever your imagination can dream up. We encourage using materials found around the house rather than store bought. The Native Americans made their homes using materials found in their backyards so we are trying to encourage the children to do the same. Please fill out the
“My Home” activity sheet and return the project to school by Tuesday, November 23rd. After your child presents their project to the class, all the projects will be on display for the whole school to see!!!!
Attached is a rubric so can see what the expectations are for this project. We will also be posting picture on the first grade blogs.
Have fun and as always thank you for your support!
