Today's Maths

Two Maths groups (Rua and Toru) put their new-found 3D shapes knowledge to good use around the room. They had a good hunt around for everyday objects in Room18 that used known 3D shapes and then they used their digital camera skills to take photos!

This is what Rua found...

Cubes as dice.



Pyramids in a computer game we play.



Rectangular Prisms as a ruler.



Spheres on our abacus.


This is what Toru found...


Spheres on our abacus.



A rectangular prism as our our recycling box.



Cylinders in our pencils.



More cylinders on the Throne!



Cubes in our unifix blocks box!



Have a look around at home for more 3D shapes. They are hidden all over the place!
