Ms. Koontz's Extending Algebra and Geometry class is learning about tiny homes and will be doing several activities leading up to a project where students will design and plan their own tiny home.

Students will be learning about how the city of Topeka defines a tiny home and the regulations surrounding the building of tiny homes. A tiny home community is planned for the city. There are several mathematical and real-world application goals for this project. The students will be working on their tiny home plans the entire semester.
