Teachers, save “Creating a Dream House” to assign it to your class.

Use the attached templates to create YOUR dream house. Outline your dream house by drawing the outside walls. Use your marker tool to do this. Your dream house's outside wall should follow along on the lines but should NOT be a rectangle. All corners need to be right angles. Divide your dream house into rooms. Each room must be a rectangle. Use your marker tool to do this. Stay on the lines! Label and color each room in a different color. Find the AREA of each room and label the area on the room. SHOW YOUR WORK on the second page. Add the area of all your rooms to find the total area of your dream house. Use the second page to show your work.
