Mrs. Curry’s 6th graders became architects, creating their own micro-mansion floor plans while learning about careers in architecture and construction. Students applied creativity, problem-solving, and real-world thinking as they planned layouts, features, and design elements—just like real architects. We might have some future designers in this class!
