A House for a Mouse??

That's right - a house for a mouse. As part of our Architecture planner we explored form, function, style and expression. The assignment was to become an architect who has a mouse for a client. Our mouse had very specific instructions on what was needed and the architects had to create the design. We used the same methods as any architect would use. First we interviewed the client and created a bubble diagram showing how the house would look. Next, we turned the bubble diagram into a floor plan using centimeter grid paper. The final step was to create a front elevation to show the style of the house. The end results are hanging in the third grade hallway. They were so amazing that Mrs. Norris borrowed a few of them to use in the Gifted and Talented Expo! Way to go, Discoverers!!
