Passion Projects 1.1

Today in passion projects me and Joel were making things out of origami. The first thing that I made out of the origami paper was a ninja star (Shuriken) after that I attempted to make a parrot it didn't really turn out as I hoped it would then Mrs Buenaventura came and checked up on us she thought the parrot was a seahorse. Next I tried making a wolf it actually worked out really well then I put some detail on four of them. In total I made nine wolves two parrots a squirrel and two flowers. For the Maths Craft day we were thinking of making a zoo and a icosahedron.

Passion Projects

Today we had our second day of Passion Projects well actually we started the projects on Monday 12th of November, the passion project I am doing is Maths Craft. It is where we do multiple things that is to do with maths like Menger sponge, Mobius Strip, Origami and String Art so on and so on they all have maths in the making of all of them. In the after noon  I tried doing one of the flexagons but unfortunately I messed it up by cutting all the pieces and I should have asked a teacher if we cut it all the way or not. 

I have learnt to make the octohegon and the cube. I used twelve sonobe pieces to make the octohegon and six sonobe pieces to make the cube.
