Prism Tents
We investigated shapes for tents. We had to design and make a model of a tent. Many of the shapes we made were actually prisms.
Then we had to write about the mathematics within our tent. The writing should include dimensions, properties of the shapes, and relevant te reo pāngarau.
|
We are learning to:
Identify classes of two- and three-dimensional shapes by their geometric properties.
Relate three-dimensional models to two- dimensional representations, and vice versa. | |

May is New Zealand Music Month
This week we explored cut paper artworks using the theme "May is New Zealand Music Month".
Follow the link to learn more about this promotion for New Zealand music.
There are many famous artists who have created wonderful artworks from cut paper. One of these was a French artist called Henri Matisse.




Our cut paper artworks had to have a 3-dimensional aspect to them. To achieve this we created curvatures through our cut out hands, making them look as though they were playing their instruments. Some artists even tried to show key chords.
