Building our House
Step By Step Instructions:
To build our house, you need to folow our instructions. First connect four rectangles together so there are two at the top and two at the bottom. Then put on the end of the rectangles you put a rectangle on the sides of the house.
In the front and the back you put two rectangles so you have walls around your house. Then put the house on stilts.
To make the roof, do the same thing as you did for the base except add another two rectangles on to it. Then to patch up the left over spaces in the roof; patch it up with two trapezoids. Finally, add the door with a square and you're done.

The shape of it's base is like a giant rectangle and it's roof is kind of like the roof of a barn. The entrance is big to just let enough light in without making it too hot in the house.
