Each member of the group will have a specific task:
-
The SEARCHER: will search for different prices for the 6 furniture chosen and will provide a list with 3 options of each one, adding the where to buy it link and the price.
- The ECONOMIST: will have to decide which one of the three options buy according to the budget and all the furniture they want to add.
- The DECORATOR: will decide how to distribute the furniture around the room drawing it and describing it using prepositions of place.
Then as a team they will have to join all the informations and prepare a presentation (power point, prezi or similar) with all the information:
- Possible furniture and prices.
- Furniture chosen and budget.
- Distribution of the furniture.
Process
