Rhys' cyclops camel

This is my cyclops camel I made by using several different angles such as Right angle,Straight angle,Reflex angle,Revoloution and Acute.At first I struggled to find out what to draw as at first I chose to do a dog which eventually turned out to be an absolute fail because I didn't have enough angles and was too small but luckily Will came to the rescue and gave me the idea of a cyclops camel which I laughed at first but began to become a great idea and kind of saved my life. This is my finished product

Nabeel's robo vampire


 
This is my Robo vampire it has a lot of acute angles -  hope you guys like it

Christopher's Geometric art



To make my Geometric art I drew it then I measured the angles.
Finally I coloured in.

Daniel's angle cat drawing

First we draw something then look for the angles. We needed to have these type of angle a  acute ,right angle ,obtuse angle,straight angle,reflex angle,revolution or full turn then measure all of the angles

Logan's angle whiteboard drawing

This is my angle whiteboard drawing and I hope you like it. We started by drawing a draft copy in our geometry and measurement book and then we copied it onto a good piece of paper. After we had finished those tasks we coloured it in. This is my finished design.

Libbie's Angle Cat

This is my cat that I made using angles. First we chose a thing to draw that included angles then we had to do a draft in our book and label the angles that we did it and had to include at least 8 angles including acute, right, obtuse, straight and reflex. Then we had to do our good copy and colour it in we also labeled the angles on this copy as well. That is how we made our drawings with angles.

Maias Geometric art

My geometric art is mostly made up of triangles. I have 4 acute angles, 1 obtuse angle, 2 reflex angles and 1 straight angle. First we did a draft of our picture. It couldn't be made using too many circles or there wouldn't be any angles. Then we chose where to place our angles. We only measured the angles with a protractor once we had started our good copy because once we enlarged it the angles would change. This is my finished product.

Making Triangles

Today we learnt about different types of triangles; scalene, equilateral, isoscles, acute and right angled.  Then we tried to make them with our bodies.

Test once, test twice!

Room 3 has had a busy week with testing this week!  PAT on Tuesday and Otago Maths on Wednesday.  Don't they look studious?
AND next week they have their first Maths Olympiad!  I recommend a 'brain breakfast'!
