Open Houses Presented by Tiger Realty

Next week the boys will present their Victorian homes they created with the art team as an extension of our community study of San Francisco history and culture.  After learning about Victorian architecture and our trip to Haas-Lilienthal House, the boys began creating their dream Victorian homes.  They wrote about these homes in real estate listings.  Using graphic organizers, they planned the features and style of their homes, then embarked on writing a persuasive listing.  They studied real estate listings to learn about elements in writing.  Then through the process of brainstorming, drafting, revising, editing, and now, publishing.  In the art room, they molded clay facades with geometric features and careful glazing.

These beautiful homes will only be on the market briefly!  This fresh crop of real estate agents at Tiger Realty is eager to make some big sales pitches to you at our Open House on Tuesday, December 16th from 8:00-8:25.  We hope you come ready to make an offer.  We will also be sharing their work digitally, so don't fret if you are unable to attend.
