In Maths we have been learning about Platonic Solids. What are they? see below.
Platonic Solids | |
There are five Platonic Solids. Each one is a polyhedron (a solid with flat faces) They are special because every face is a regular polygon of the same size and shape. Example: each face of the cube is a square. They are also convex (no "dents" or indentations in them). They are named after Plato, a famous Greek philosopher and mathematician.

Today we used tooth picks and lollies to make platonic solids. It was tricky but they looked great.
Ms.D took some photos of us building our platonic solids: |
What a great way to learn about Platonic Solids!! Was there any wine gums left when you had finished? Miss Corby.
ReplyDeleteYes, sadly we had to eat quite a few!
