build your dream home

During this trimester course, students explored the skills that architects use by designing and building their dream house, albeit on a small scale.  Students developed 21st Century Skills as they planned, refined, and created their homes.  At the end of the course, we had a TYWLS Street of Dreams, during which they had the chance to show off their work.
