Canstruction


Today we added the arms to our minion and tally up how many cans we will need. All together we will need 381 cans. 188 yellow ones, 65 black ones and 118 blue. We had to work out the radius, Diameter  and the Circumference of each tins. One of the photos is the chart and the other one is my blueprint.

Tapa Cloth

Today  I went further with my Tapa Cloth. The Tapa Cloths have a Samoan theme. Today I hand drew the designs on to the brown paper. Next week I am hoping to vivid it and dye it. I hope it will look cool.  This is Katie's finished one!!!

Talent Development

Today in Talent Development we were talking about how our rugby jersey was going too be to hard to make because we need too many cans. So we decided that we would not make a rugby jersey anymore.We chose a "Despicable Me" Minion.  So we got on to Active Inspire and we made a blue print. I think it looks pretty cool so what do you think?

Canstruction

Today we did Talent Development. For Talent Development I am doing Canstruction. Today we did a blue print on Goggle Sketch Up. It was really really hard, and really really frustrating. We had to make all the little cans all 384 of them and put them in shape and colour them. Mine looks like a monster. We are trying to make a wall of cans that will hopefully end up being a Highlanders rugby jersey.This is what we are trying to make.

Hi Izzy,
I was impressed with your enthusiasm towards our maths talent development today.  Thank you for emailing our can salesman and setting up the meeting for the group! Are you looking forward to seeing the possible cans we could use? It’s going to be a big mission! 
See you next week
Alana

Passion Time

Today we did Passion Time. For my passion time I am doing science. Today we did 2 experiments. The first one we did was a rubber egg experiment and we have to wait until next week and then we did a magnetic one. The magnetic one was with a nail and we got a big magnet and tied the nail to some string and cellotaped it to the table and the nail floated around to the magnet. It was really cool. I cant wait until next week to see if our egg works.
