Making a chain

Making a chain

WALT: 1) write a recount

           2) integrate maths and writing

On Monday, the whole class had to work in groups of two’s for maths. The person that I worked with was Serena. After we got in our pair we had to get two different coloured A5 papers.

First after we got our papers, we had to estimate on how long our chain would be. Then we had a discussion about the strategy on how to make our chain the longest.

Next, we measured the width of our strips. After measuring the width I had to cut them out and while I was cutting out the strips I had to glue the at the same time too.

Thereafter when we finished making our chain, we had to measure it with a one meter ruler. When Serena and I measured our chain we had 220cm.

Finally when everyone had finished making there chain, we recorded how long our chains were.
