Homework: Measure a Room

HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT #1: MEASURING A ROOM

I will be handing out a sheet that you can use to measure a room -- it can be a room in your house or a friends house (bedrooms usually work well) or a room at the school or a room at a local business.  You will be measuring the dimensions of the room (length, width, and height) and the locations for major architectural features (windows, doors, closets, etc.) as well as making notes about what materials are used (e.g. blue carpet, red paint, flower wallpaper, etc.).  We will be using these dimensions and material ideas to build the room in 3D.  Feel free to make notes on the back of the paper (materials, colors, etc.).

Try to measure everything in inches -- for example, if the room was 10 feet long it would be 120 inches.  If a door was 7 feet tall it would be 84 inches.  Note that while the tiny squares on the Grid Layout are inches, the larger (darker) squares are in feet.
