Matilda's Learning Journey

Salve, Et Deus Benedicat Tibi ( Good Morning, and God Bless You) The Recipe is... #1 One Marshmallow #2 20 pieces of spaghetti #3 100cm of string #4 100cm of sellotape Today Liliana, Deborah and I were in a group to do a science experiment. The science experiment was that you had to build a tower that would be stable enough, withou t anyone holding it, to support a marshmallow. We used, 20 pieces of spaghetti, 100cm of string and 100cm of sellotape and the desk if you wanted to. IT WAS SOOOOO HARD! Our sculpcher kept collapsing and collapsing, it was SOOOO Annoying! What we could of done better was not breaking the spaghetti and we really needed more sellotape because the string wasn't helpful. The Best parts about it was team work and eating the spaghetti and marshmallow afterwards. Thanks for reading Matilda :)

Salve, Et Deus Benedicat Tibi ( Good Morning, and God Bless You) This Week we were focusing on 3D shapes in Maths. We used dotty paper and made a net, but it was very complicated because you had to get it right or it would fail. I was trying to make a rectangular prism. My first attempt failed because it had no top and my second attempt failed as well because it had no sides. It was still fun! Here are some pictures of my first attempt and second attempt. The first attempt failed because it had no top because I did not put the slab in the middle. The second attempt failed by not having any side because I forgot a step for the edges. This is my first attempt ⬇️ Four vertices twenty edges two faces This is my second attempt  ⬇️
