Teach your students Area and multiplication of Decimals through designing and constructing their very own ice cream truck! A great Math and Art activity!

Congratulations! You have embarked upon the journey of designing and building your own ice cream truck! Before you can begin construction, you will need to design the floor plan and calculate the cost of your equipment while staying within your $15,000 budget. Follow the steps below to get started. Good luck!

This fantastic no-prep resource guides students through researching, designing and constructing an ice cream truck. Students are guided through the process of floor plan design, configuring the location/size of each piece of equipment, determining the area of each piece of equipment, and calculating the construction costs while staying on budget. Students then design and colour both the interior and exterior of their trucks before they begin construction.

Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy in which students are challenged to actively learn about a subject for an extended period of time. It is a form of active learning or inquiry-based learning. Project-Based Learning is in contrast to paper-based, rote memorization, or teacher-led instruction that presents established facts. Please be aware of what you are purchasing.

Thanks so much,
