Making Nets
Making nets
WALT makes nets for simple 3-D shapes
and to create models of these.
A net is a ruled 2-D patten
That folds to make a 3-D shape.
These are patterns or nets that make
for making cubes.
These are my nets that fold into their 3-D shape.
Only 3 out of 4 worked.
This is my cylinder. I think that it does not look like a cylinder because I folded it where I wasn’t meant to.
