Entry Event:

Students in Mrs. Miller's class looked at sample room designs and started "dreaming big". Students started by researching what cool things they would want to include in their dream room.

Project Management (Step by Step Plan):

1) Research - finding objects and furniture for room

2) Sketch - drawing a sketch of the room design

3) Converting Measurements & Scaling Down - learned how to find the dimensions of an object, convert to millimeters and then scale to 1%.

4) TinkerCad - learned how to design on a TinkerCad workplane.

5) Design & Create - used Tinkercad to design and create a dream room using converted measurements and scale.

6) Reflection - answered questions reflecting on the process of creating the dream room

Reflection:

Samples of student reflections below;

What did you do your best work on?

• The research and planning of my room.

• Creating a detailed sketch of my room.

• Finding measurements for all of the objects in my room.

• Making sure my room dimensions matched the measurements on my worksheet.

What was one thing you learned during this PBL?

• I learned how to convert measurements into millimeters then scale it down to one percent.

• One thing I learned during this PBL was how to convert measurements. I learned how to convert feet and inches into millimeters.

• That designing is really hard if you don't have a creative mind.
