Create a STRUCTURE!

Thursday, May 14th

Dear Division 8,

Thank you for ALL your amazing videos and pictures! I can’t wait to put them together for you in a video! If you haven’t sent me your picture of JOY, please do so by the end of the week. If you haven’t done the PE toilet paper challenge please try and get that in to me too! By the way I just had to share Quinn’s amazing nature art and Kary’s genius hour project. Kary made a camera!

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                   Today’s challenge:

I want you to create a tower, bridge or building using materials you find at home!

You can use paper towels, tissue boxes, cardboard, books, chairs, pillows or anything else to come up with a way to build a tower, bridge or building. Be creative, have fun and don’t forget to use a growth mindset. I’ve included a picture of a tower built out of cardboard boxes.

When you’re done, what are the different ways you can measure your structure? Height, width or length? Take a few measurements.

Create a background for your structure. What is the setting for your structure? It could be mountains, a river, the moon or a city. Use your imagination. You could use cardboard paper, newspaper or flyers to create the background and then use markers and pencil crayons for colour.

Create a story about your structure and tell a family member.  Who are the characters? What could happen in this story?

What else does your structure inspire you to think about or do? Tell me about it below in the comments section. Don’t forget to take a picture and send it to Satpaul.Binng@burnabyschools.ca.

Happy building and creating today! When you’re all done, head over to Microsoft teams for your math video.

Love,

Ms. Binng
