  This one is really easy to get in level one, "Bricksburg Construction". I actually missed this the first time around since this is a new element to the Lego video games, so if you are like me you can restart the level or come back to it later in free play.
  
  When you start the level you will be asked to find the instructions for the porch. This is obtained from the broken delivery tube to the right of your spawn area using your wrench.
  
  Once you have the instruction build, just go to the builder where you started (orange platform) and hit B.
  
  When you start the instruction build you have to select the correct Lego piece to complete the construction. The piece you are looking for is the tree. It's NOT always in the same location but find it as fast as possible and hit the A button as soon as the tree is highlighted in the picture. If you mess up, just back out of the level and go right back in. Not a problem as the build is one of the first things you do.
  
  This is the easiest build in the game as it only requires one piece and it's at the beginning of the level. There is actually one other one-piece construction on the train in the level "Escape from Flatbush" but it's very late in the level. Everything else in the game requires multiple pieces and I found that I always mess up at least one of them, so level one is your best bet.
  
  Free Play Location: When you are in the hub, make sure you go to Bricksburg and to the construction site. Right outside the gate to the construction site is a small portal in the ground on the left side. Walk up there and I think hit the B button, then it will ask you if you want to do story or free play. Either one will work for the achievement.
  
  If you have questions, please let me know. Thanks!

  I missed it the first time as I was holding my baby on my arms and playing the game at the same time. Thanks for listing the location for free play.

  There is another easy single piece instruction build in level 5 "Escape From Flatbush" if you missed the "Bricksburg Construction" one. Towards the end of the level where you build a lift to reach the roof of the train.

  Yep! Mentioned above in the solution but it takes longer to get to. I guess I can clarify more.

  This can be attained at the beginning of the first level: "Bricksburg Construction".
  
  Start off with getting the Instruction build which is located in a tube on the right hand side. Bring it back to the beginning and hit B on the orange platform.
  
  You will now enter a mini-game where you need to select the correct silhouette of the missing piece of the diagram on the right. This needs to be done as quickly as possible as there is a timer that depletes your studs (you start at 5,000). If this falls then you will need to restart the level.
  
  The missing item you are looking for is a dome-shaped tree. When you see it, highlight it and hit (A).
  
  *Note: This was done in Free Play mode but it can also be done in Story Mode.
