In Room 12b, we have been studying on planter boxes.
We had to measure out with a ruler on a piece of wood. Some people had 1-2-3 pieces, others had 1-2 or just one. Mr sutherland had prepared us with some wood to measure on. We decided to go into 12a to do the measuring, considering since there were still some old tables left from when the old food tech was in.
As we were just finishing / starting our measurements, we had to do a school one for everyone to use.
Me and Yasmin were working together and we decided to do 15cm up and 22cm across, we then drew it out on the computer and then planned it out on a piece of paper. Our volume of the box was - 7260.
(This was our home one)
Then me and Yasmin were moving on to doing the school one which was going to be put out on the sheppard courtyard. We decided to do the same as our home one because it was quite a good size. After all the drawing with pencil, we couldn't see as clearly. So, we decided to use a sharpie to outline it and it would be more clearer to cut and see.
After finishing all the wood pieces, we went back and the next time we came the pieces had been cut for us.
Using nails with a hammer we built the box together..until..
I nailed my bottom board onto the side.
We manuged to fix it and now a lot of people have them around the class for putting in Drink bottles, pencil cases, headphones..
Here are some pictures of what mine turned out to be -
