= = =3D houses.​= = We first started off drawing some basic cubes. Then Miss Bates showed us how to colour them to make them look ‘alive’. When everyone got the hang of drawing the cubes we started to draw them from 1x1 to 5x5 on dotted paper. I enjoyed the activity because I love to draw. =

= **Next we started to draw a 3d city on 1cm dotted paper. We were given a printed sheet of paper with some buildings made up of four cubes, we chose up to fifteen of these buildings and drew them on the dotted paper. Then we made roads, we had to be careful of which angle the roads were on or they wouldn’t look right. We eventually made up a city. I really enjoyed this activity, here is my 3D city:** = =** We moved on to drawing 3d houses using one of the buildings that we used on our 3d city. First we started off drawing the shape, then we added plants, grass, garages, doors, windows etc. I found it very easy to do this. I decided not to make it a super modern house, I decided to make it a house that suits me. This was my favourite part of the whole cube drawing subject in Maths. Iam really happy with how it turned out! Here it is: **=

=Next we drew all the different veiws of our house. These drawings were 2d and 3d. I spent some extra time at home to finnish this off as I used alot of my time doing bricks at school. I decided to put a green trim around the outside of the house to give it some more affect. Here it is:=

=We al did a 3d model of our house. We had to make a net so that it would all fold up and stick together. We started from scratch and used some dotted paper. I found this very hard at the start but once I got the basic et down it went well. The first time I took it home to finnish it I did not think that it was grade six standard, so the next night I went home and made a new net and a better model. Here it is:=
