English Maths: Hands-On Geometry: From Bricks to Stadiums
Teacher
Merel
Description
This course makes geometry tangible and exciting by using hands-on models. You will start by mastering core concepts like volume, surface area, and 3D sketching with LEGO bricks. You will then apply these skills to two major projects: constructing the Kings Park Stadium 3D puzzle and analyzing the mechanics of a LEGO Technic John Deere Tractor. This course is aligned with the CAPS Term 3 curriculum.
