Match Sticks - Week 3

This is my name Ruby.  My name is one metre long. You could make it one metre long or you could you make it 20cm high. It  has to have 50 match sticks. It was  hard because my name has 4 letters and I had to make my letters bigger.

The learning in the activity was that you had to have a good starting point and a good finishing point. That you had to measure accurately and the number learning was that when we were finished we had to add how many colours there were.  I will give you a hint, say if you had 10 yellows and on the piece of paper it said that the yellow cost $10, then this is the working out: 10 x 10=100.
