Eco House with Sketch Up


After our attempts to design eco houses in class I know a number of you are keen to use Sketch Up to make your designs look better (and even place them in Google Earth). The link to download the free software is here. Make sure you ask before installing on your parents PC! When you finish the design be sure to save a view as a .png file and then paste it into Word before adding your labels.

The Y9 students at the International School of Toulouse are about to embark on a similar project here:

Maybe - your students could act as judges?
