Sustainable Housing Construction
by Heather John
In this lesson it will take two or more days for groups or student(s) to build their eco friendly sustainable house. They need to consider their budget as well as what materials will represent each part of their house. Students will learn to give critical feedback as well as except feedback to make revisions to their house before final submission. Students will be graded using the rubric and reflect on their learning experience individually. Remember some students may need more support than others and that is okay to assist them in the process of construction and peer feedback.
