It’s always interesting to see where people live and how they decorate their homes. Getting a glimpse of a persons living quarters can tell you a lot about their personality and passions! Our curiosity and fascination with dwellings has created a market of television shows and products all based around the home.
With the Design Your Own Dwelling Vocabulary Activity students will draw up their ideal place to live, from castle to tree house. Then they will use vocabulary words to label and describe aspects of their dwelling. Below are two examples of what you can expect to see from students when they complete the vocabulary exercise.
