their room as it is now, or their ideal room. The BluePrint is a Birds Eye
View of the room. At least 5 items must be present and labelled in
French.
2) Students will create a Diorama in shoe boxes they brought from home,
creating a 3D model of their BluePrints, using materials brought from
home and from school.
3) Students will write a short paragraph describing their rooms. The
paragraph will begin Dans ma chambre, il y a followed by a list of
items in their room. They may also include details about their walls and
floor, such as what colour they are, or if the floors are made of wood.
Once all three parts are completed, the BluePrints should be attached
to the back or side of the Diorama, and the paragraph should be
attached to the front or top.

Eg. Dans ma chambre, il y aun lit, un oreiller, une table de nuit, un tapis et
