    These eight lessons all fit together to make an interesting unit about the design of the portable classroom. Introductory lessons give ample opportunities to have students brainstorm and work together to learn appropriate vocabulary. Students learn how to accurately measure, sketch, and draw to scale their classroom, or even their entire school. Research skills are incorporated and an evaluation from an architect about their model buildings is encouraged. Some of the stated PDF’s or vocabulary words are not included. Overall, any of these lessons could stand alone as a small unit or if utilized to its fullest extent, could be an extended unit of six weeks or longer.
