My Dream Home Project
Funded Sep 23, 2021
Thank you for your generous donations to our school makerspace. Our kids deserve the best, and you are helping in providing the tools and technology necessary for them to engage in meaningful STEAM activities (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). The items you supported will allow our students to complete not only this project, but several more we have created for the upcoming semesters.”
With gratitude,
Mr. Torralba
This classroom project was brought to life by The Allstate Foundation and 4 other donors.

The goal of this project is to engage scholars in designing, building, and modeling the home of their dreams. Scholars will need to draw on their families' lived experiences to create a home that meets everyone's needs. These needs will guide their thinking when building the home (overall layout, architectural appearance) and determining the location (schools, workplace). Scholars will be placed in groups of three to four to complete this project. Though each scholar will create their individual homes, they work in teams to learn from each other through brainstorming, discussions, and feedback. Laser cutters and 3D printing technologies require the learning of brainstorming, strategizing, sketching, editing, prototyping, modeling, iterative feedback, and finally 3D printing and laser cutting. With the use of a 3D printer and laser cutter, my students will be able to create a physical model, using the technologies professionals use.
