Honk honk. Who's hungry

Ok everyone a little info about me. Well as you might know I like to cook and I like to try different foods out. One thing I like to do in the summer time is to go food trucking. We have a good number of food trucks in my area. So I though it would be really cool to try and bring that to a project. A few years ago I did the Missouri state soda can design project. And my fourth grader have to study the Missouri state symbols. So we took the same concept as the soda can and applied it to food trucks. First of all my students didn't know that we had food trucks where we lived so know they are on the lookout for them. Plus they thought it was cool that they were going to get make a 3d food truck. Here are a few pictures. I might try to post a few more when we get them done.

What a fun idea! Get the kids to watch the food channel when they have the Great Food Truck Race, a series of cooking challenges.

So, did you try to have them create the 3-d truck form first before you went to the prefab? I'm just wondering. I like how they had to think about all the sides...but wasn't sure if you had them try to construct it before...and thought better of it?

What are you talking about mr e??? Are you talking about making the truck out of a box or something.

Let me know more. I am a bit lost And then we can go from there. Thanks.

Well, a box would be cool!!!!!!... but I was thinking about them designing the topsides and such themselves...to have more variety in shape of the finished product.
