Hello friends and welcome to my humble abode! Today we will be covering my most recent math project: The Dream House. The house that only exists in your dreams, has come to life! YOU get to see the house everyone’s been going crazy over, The Tatgela. Creative name, right? It wasn’t easy putting together this masterpiece, we had quite a bit of stuff we needed to do before building it on the app. Before we made the design, we studied scale factor and did some worksheets similar to what we did for the Dream House. After that, we were given some time to work on designing and building the house. The designing was fairly easy, but when we began building it in the app we ran into a few road blocks. The first was the stairs, which I couldn’t figure out how to build a second floor even though we’d already designed one.
The second difficult part was the kitchen. I hated that thing. It was very hard to follow all the rules, such as
-appliances must not be blocking each other
-The fridge, dishwasher, and oven must be ___ far away from each other.
-etc
Eventually we made it work, but there was another problem with the app. After I’d already built the kitchen, dining room, and living room, all my work was deleted after I joined back into the app.
So, in summary, I had a lot of fun doing this project but it was frustrating at times. I used an app called RoomPlanner to make this project. Be sure to tune in soon for part 2 of my metaphor machine!
