Project composting and worm farming

This term my group of Eden, Meliana, La’Shae and I made this project.  Our inquiry investigation question was investigate the different species of worms in New Zealand. First, we used the internet to research our topic.  Then we constructed this project. Eden an I helped pour the the mud / dirt onto the display. Meliana and La’Shae helped with sticking the paper onto the pink paper.We used yellow, pink, white paper and dirt to create it. What was easy? It was easy to staple the papers onto the box. What was difficult? The most difficult part was to stick the white paper on the box because there was a big hole in between. How did this help your learning? What would you like to investigate next? I’d like to investigate how animals were created.

Maths Tessellation

It's a repeat of a pattern, it is also a process of art. I colour the triangle blue, the square green and the hexagon orange. I found this artwork easy I want to try an intricate pattern some other time. Tessellation can be used in many areas, tessellation can be found as a hobby or a origami art. Escher is a person who created tessellation. The tessellation pattern can be repeated with the same colours and shapes.
