2D Shapes

It's a Friday and the time is 12:15. The first thing I knew was that the three high school girls, Cindy,Francis and Claudia are coming into help us with our maths.The class all went quiet as they waited for the three girls to walk in the room.Suddenly we hear a knock then the door squeaking as it opens."Hooray" we all shout.Mrs.Wynde stated to put us into groups and the girls decided what activity they would like to do.First I had kinder squares with Mrs.Wynde where we cut the kinder square into four triangles and make a shape with all four triangle.The second activity I did was the tangrams with Francis.We had to cut out different shapes and make a big square.We then moved on to the pattern blocks with Claudia where we had to use different shapes to make a hexagon.Last but not least we moved on to making a triangle with matchsticks where we had to make 13 triangle with in a big triangle.I can't wait until next Friday to do more other activities.

Reema

After snack there high school girls came to our classroom. Their names are Francis, Cindy and Cloudia. When I did pattern blocks with Cloudia I found out that 6 triangles make a hexagon. I also found out that 3 rhombus make a hexagon and with a square you can't make a hexagon.
When ten minutes I went and did tooth picks with Cindy. During the 10 minutes my group and I had to make a big triangle out of a 9 small triangles. I ahd found out I had made 13 triagles when I had finished.
Next I did kinda squares with Mrs.Wynde. I had made a square, rhombus rectangle, triangle and a tripezium with some help.
After that I did tamgrams with Fransic. I could not find out how to make the square so I got help by Francis. At the end I had made a tamgram square.
