Math talent development

Today at talent development we have started making a lego minifigure size band rotunda because the SIT building is getting demolished and they can't cut pieces for us for our puppet showed sized model. We are making our smaller ones in groups of 1, 2 or 3. I am in a group of three with Kieran and Wilson. As you can see we are not done.
 We are making them out of card, pipe-cleaners, straws and ice-block sticks. We made a huge mess!

We divided all of the real measurements by 70 to get our model measurements.

Maths talent development

Today at talent development we got our measurements from 2 weeks ago and we scaled them down to make our band rotunda (which is now going to be a puppet stage). The equations that we had to do were either divided by 8 or times 0.125.
