Junior designers brainstorm the elements that a bedroom might have, such as a bed, television, and dresser. They identify which items are needs and which are desires. They practice measurement skills in the classroom by determining its dimensions and the dimensions of various objects in it. Finally, each individual creates a sketch of their dream room and writes a descriptive essay about it. Note that even if you do not have the Share™ application that is part of the lesson, there is plenty here to use in your math class.
