L.I to find the most efficient strategy to solve the problem

For this challenge we solved a question regarding  ta'ovala. Ta'ovala is a traditional Tongan  piece of clothing worn for special occasions. Our main information was that for 8 ta'ovala 12 meters of material was used, we need to find out how many meters of material would take to make 26 ta'ovala. First we found out how much material it would take to make one ta'ovala which we did by dividing 12 by 2, 6 by 2 and then 3 by 2 which gave us 1.5. After that we multiplied 1.5 x 10 two times which gave us 30, then we multiplied 1.5 x 6 and that gave us 9. Lastly we added 30 and 9 to give us our answer 39.

L.I to think outside the box

For this challenge we were given a weird shape that we could make something out of. I drew a duck because the shape looked a duck's bill and some part of it's head. I liked doing this challenge because it required us to thin outside the box and I had fun drawing.
