\"\"<\/a>Well, the Dolphins in Year 3 have been looking at containers. They wanted to know how this container was actually made so they decided\u00a0 – once empty again – to dismantle it. They discovered it was actually made out of a 2d flat shape called a \u2018net’.\u00a0 Once the Dolphins had discovered this they wanted to make their own 3d shape using a net.
<\/p>\n

They made small 3d nets but wanted to make a bigger 3d shape.\u00a0 They began thinking about making a large 3d square-based pyramid.\u00a0 This involved a bit of problem solving \u2013 ‘how could they make a small net bigger to make a larger 3d square-based pyramid?’<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After lots of discussion and experimenting, they decided to measure the original \u2018small\u2019 net carefully from the centre point.\u00a0 Then they doubled the measurement and drew the net using the new longer measures.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hurrah, success\u2026they made new enlarged 3d square-based pyramids.<\/p>\n

Finally decorated and used it to make a special container for a secret Christmas gift.<\/p>\n
