  • Model Dream Houses Come to Life!

    Funded Apr 8, 2022

    I am incredibly humbled by your generosity and confidence in our work at Burdick. The kids are SO excited to build their dream houses and apply the math we've been learning this year. I was able to work with a local carpet company, and they've agreed to donate small squares to make this project even cooler and more realistic. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to create something really special in a year that has been particularly challenging. YOU are the reason why our students will get to pursue a hands on learning experience and foster a deeper love for math ”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Prudhom

  • Learning by Creating Math- Surface Area Dream House!

    Funded May 26, 2021

    I can't express how thankful the kids and I are to have our project fully funded. We can't wait to get this project going! With these materials, I know the students will further develop a love for learning. Ever since I posted the project, the kids always ask if we've been funded and that they want to start working on their calculations right away. It takes a lot to get 7th graders excited about completing computations, but I can assure you, they will learn so much from this. I sincerely can't thank you enough for your donation!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Prudhom

Having real blueprint paper and a solid base to build a dream house on, will give my students a rich experience. To start this project, my students will have a question and answer session with an interior designer. She will discuss how she uses math, and specifically surface area in her career. After that, the students will design their dream home! Calculating and building their dream home will be epic. They must create have at least four rooms, and they will calculate the surface area and square footage of each room and hallway. After that, they will measure out their homes on the blueprint paper. They will then build rooms out of cardboard and use the tacky glue and scissors to assemble them based on their measurements. They will also calculate the dimensions of their roof (a triangular prism) and build a roof! Students will then get to practice their presentation skills and present their work to the class! This project is cross-curricular and brings math to life in a super creative way. We would love your help to make it even more rad!
