Tiny House Design. In this lesson we talked about the careers of engineering, architecture, city planning, and exterior design before designing our own little worlds. Students started by using math concepts to draw and and design a 6 x 8 inch house out of one piece of paper. We talked about building materials and aesthetics to create a realistic structure to live in. From there they had to incorporate a chimney roof, and porch to compliment their design. To finish it off, students received an acre of “land” to create a yard that could facilitate their hobbies and dreams. They had a great time making the items in the yard as you can see!
