Making A Chain

Making a chain

Walt: 1.Write a recount

         2.Integrate maths and writing

On Monday morning we made a paper chain. We did this because our focus was to make the longest chain in the class. My partner was Tane. We made the chain out of A5 paper

First we estimated how long our chain would be. My estimation was 140 centimeters. Tane’s estimation was 179 cm. We had a discussion about our estimation and we went with mine. We had a pattern that went green, green, red, red.

Next we cut the paper into strips. We had to make the strips even. We didn’t cut it straight. Our cutting was very crooked. Only the green paper strips were big and the red were small. After we cut it we connected the strips with the tape that was given to us.

Thereafter we measured the chain. It was more than one meter. We grabbed the other one meter ruler and measured it. Our chain was 192 cm long. If we pulled the chain it would of been more than two meters.

Finally we compared the measurement with our estimation. My estimation was close but not close enough. If we chose Tane’s estimation we would of been more closer than my one. Then we compared our chain with the student's chain. The longest chain made in our class was Viliami’s chain. His was 3 m and 83 cm.

I think that if we cut it more thinner it would of been more longer and if it had a lot of width it would be shorter.

Length Of Chains

Length Of Chains

Walt: 1) Arrange length in order.

        2) Find mean, median, mode and range.

        3) Explain the differences in length.

Pairs	Length of Chain in centimeters
Ben and Dion	86
Wesley and Koliata	169
Lorenzo and Liam	170
Ifa and Tane	192
Alyssa and Shanelle	192
Andrea and Lana	200
Racket  and Serena	220
Stephanie and Cherish	286
Petulant and Yazmin	304
Munokoa and Samuel	320
Viliami and Howard	383

Mean of this table is 229.3

Median is 200.

Mode is 192.

Range is 297.

The differences in the length. I think it's all different because of the cutting. Some of them cut it lengthwise and with width. Viliami’s chain was long because they took their time to cut it even and small. Ben and Dion was the shortest chain because they cut it with width. In the middle some were going to be long but the cutting was uneven which caused it to be in the middle. If we were to do this topic I would take our teachers advice. The thinner the chain the longer the chain.
