Instructions for the free activity:
Students will need one piece of construction paper that is at least 9x12 in. to use as their background. The parts of the home that they measure and create can be made out of other construction paper and glued on or can be drawn directly onto the background.
There are 2 versions of this activity: One is only inches and the other includes inches and centimeters.
Each student will use the Measuring My Home page to follow instructions and create their home.
They will check off each task as they complete it and glue the page to the bottom of their creation.

—”I am so in love with this resource! The Lucky Little Learners team has thought of absolutely everything a teacher would need to teach from this resource! When they say a whole math unit these guys actually mean it. The only thing you may need at all, is a few manipulatives, which most will have in the classroom already. These are my new favorite resources. Also, math, which I used to hate teaching, is my new favorite part of the day.” - Heather G.
