Today we are makeing gingerbread houses. Last week we found the area of each ginger bread house.

It's the holliday season, and were making ginger bread houses! We did this last year, and we had so much fun, we had to do it again. So we were given two options of homes: Beginner and Advanced. The beginner was smaller, but you wouldn't have to do as much math figuring out the area and so on. The adavanced was bigger, and had extra parts like windows and doors. My dear mom didn't give us a choice, and we had to design an adavanced house. We made the desgin, and will be making the house itself today! stay tuned!! -Mayumi and Amena (even though Mayumi did all the typing and work)

in the first time it was hard for me then it was easy mom helped me to make the house and then it was good 🏫😊

Today my partner and I, (Foni ) made a table made from paper and cardbord. We twisted 3 peices of paper to creat each leg. A piece of cardbord served as the top. The table, The first book, The other book... Ahhhhhhhhh! Thankfully, the table lived! By Emi

Hi everyone!Today we made our paper tables. As you may know, we can have eight peices of paper, a peice of cardboard and tape. Rules: 1: the table must be eight inches long. 2: the table legs must be made out of paper. 3: it must carry a heavy book for five seconds and after that it has to hold an even heavier book and then both of them together. If your table works, you win! My mom gave us two extra peices of paper, so we made the table legs out af three peices of paper. We made three legs so we could have an even amount of paper.With the extra peice of paper, we stuffed it into the table legs. A few times we had to make imrovements, but in the end, it worked out. Some of the problems were buckling, and tilting. We solved these problems by stuffing the table legs with paper and stablizing the legs with more tape. Bye!

Amena: Hey everyone! Today me and my best friend Mayumi tried to make a table that can hold a book of 650 pages. We could use only 3 things and they are: tape, 8 papers, and a piece of cardboard. The piece of cardboard should be the top of the table. Our fist attempt didn't work because the legs of the table weren't taped well, and they weren't properly rolled. The second attempt worked because we properly rolled the paper and taped the legs well, but the main thing that held the book is that the legs of the table were 3 papers not 2. here is a picture of our successful attempt:

This is what a table should look like: What Me and my Bestie's table looked like... So we had a challenge to build a table out of tape, 8 sheets of paper, and cardboard. The cardboard could only be used for the top, and the legs had to be at least 8 inches long. And, It had to support my Mom's "Arabic English Dictionary" which is about 2 pounds. If our precious table survived that trauma, our table would have to suffer the crushing weight of another one of my Mom's dictionaries. Which weighed easily twice the amount of the first book. Our table collapsed first book, due to our table legs not being taped on properly. The table tilted, then fell to the ground with with its legs awry, and torn from the cardboard. Poor table. Do you guys have a better idea for the design?
