We have all worked really well this morning to show our understanding and reasoning about 2D and 3D shapes. We investigated what shapes we could make with a certain number of straws and blocks of clay and got really messy! We made tetrahedrons, cuboids and square based pyramids. Who can remember the shape they made from cutting up a square into 4 triangles? what was the perimeter? did it have parallel sides?
Have a great weekend everyone and see you on Tuesday next week!!

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you did Alexandra. I was impressed with your learning.
DeleteGrace came running out of school today saying: "it's been brilliant today, we've done art and crafty stuff all day with Mr Wainwright!"
