Tent maths!

Hello blogging world! Last week Te Waka Ako made a toothpick and modelling clay tent for maths. Making this tent was really fun because we got to have the tent any shape. We first started off by doing some maths about tents in a maths book then once we have finished doing the tent maths the senior syndicate gathered up together and everyone each got a handful of toothpicks and 1 tube of clay to make their tent. Below this text is my tent it was not finished though but hope you like it.



From making this tent I have learnt that if you use too much clay at the top of your tent to hold up your toothpicks it will be too heavy for the toothpicks and the tent will eventually break or fail. Maybe next time I should try different and harder shapes to challenge my self. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post and will be inspired. Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful blog comment. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!
