Students will learn how to build a detailed 3D house and learn a lot about architecture along the way!

Each lesson will begin by learning new SketchUp tools. I will be going over each new tool, how it works, and what it will be used for in regards to the 3D house model. 

Week 1: Introduction to SketchUp
Objective: Student will learn how to build a basic house structure.
Student will practice with each tool that is introduced.
Student will learn architectural vocabulary and how it applies to the house. 

Week 2: More advanced tools and concepts
Objective: Student will learn more advanced tools and how to manipulate objects.

Week 4: Texturing
Objective:  Student will learn how to texture their house and continue learning architectural concepts such as scale.

The completed house should be submitted to the Outschool classroom.

The Student may submit up to 3 houses or objects on which to receive feedback. 

*Please note, grades (letter/percentage) are not issued for this course.

**The closing date for classes will be one week after the last session.  Work submitted after the close date will not receive feedback.

For interaction: Learners will have the opportunity to post their work in the classroom to share with one another. I will be checking the classroom every Monday and Thursday to give feedback and to answer questions. 

I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful creations.
