Get into the Christmas spirit, while also providing your students with an engaging and maths filled project!

Your students will become Gingerbread House Architects. They will work through the design process of building a house, before calculating the total cost of the build. Finally students will use their construction knowledge to create a 3D model of their Gingerbread house.

Topics Explored:

• Mapping (creating a floor plan)
• Perimeter and Area
• 3D shapes and dimensions
• 2D shape properties
• Nets of a 3D object
• Money (calculating the total cost of the build)
• 3D object creation
• 1cm x 1cm grid paper included
