Adding Spice to Mapping Skills!

In all the years I've taught, 1st-5th grade students are required to create a map of some kind...usually starting with mapping your classroom (whole group) and then having students map their home or their own room. In my quest to find a way to spice up this lesson, I stumbled upon the Floor Planner website! It is incredibly cool and allowed my homeschooler to create a 2D model of our home....not only that, with just one click, we were able to make the 2D layout we created into a 3D model! I have to say, that this was as much fun for me to learn as it was for my 2nd grader!
