Hi Courtney's dad here. A couple of days ago while Courtney, her sister Ashleigh and a couple of friends of theirs were building a hut in the park. I decided to help them out. I asked them what they thought was the strongest shape so that we could use that shape in making the hut. They concluded that a square was the strongest. I said triangle and used the park swing frame as an example of how triangles are used. But they were sure that they were correct.
This maybe a question that could be put to other class members. Reasons for their conclusion and may be an experiment or two to also prove their conclusion, if time permits.
I'll be interested to see if Courtney changes her mind.......?
Have a great day =-)
