=Introduction= The Wistowski's are a caring and giving family. They have done a lot for their community and are loved by all. John Wistowski, the father of the family, is a single parent taking care of 5 children: Jessica (17), Ben (15), Megan (13), Faith (9), and Joshua (4). Three years ago, Kim Wistowski, the mother of the family, and daughter Megan, where in a fatal car accident. Kim did not survive and Megan was severely injured and ultimately paralyzed from the neck down. This family knows what heartbreak and hard times feel like but that has never stopped them from working hard, giving as much as they can, and loving everyone. The Wistowski's are not the type to ask for help, but they do need it, and they deserve it. How can you help the Wistowski's?

=Task= Ty Pennington Wants You! You are an accomplished architect struggling to find work due to the bad economy. You've just heard about Extreme Makeover Home Editions new competition. Ty Pennington and the team are asking architects from all around to design a house for the Wistowski family. The Wistowski's are in need of desperate changes. Currently the Wistowski's only have 3 bedrooms between the 6 of them and their house is not wheelchair accessible for the handicapped daughter. The team and family will judge all the designs and decide which one is best. If yours if chosen you will become a member of the Extreme Makeover Home Edition team! Your design must meet the requirements and needs of the Wistowski family to be eligible.

=Conclusion= You did it! Using your knowledge of geometry and Google SketchUp you were able to design a suitable and comfortable house for the Wistowski's. The model you made represents your expertise in geometrical concepts and your capability of using Google SketchUp. Your presentation to Ty Pennington and the Extreme Makeover Home Edition team proved your ability to describe figures in different ways and talk about them professionally. The Wistowski family is forever grateful for all your hard work.
