What were we learning?
To create a set of measurements to help us make Jacobite hats.
How would we know if we were successful?
- We would be able to measure our head circumference in centimetres.
- We would be able to calculate the diameter and radius using the circumference to help us.
- We would be able to use the radius measurement to create a perfect circle.
What did we do?
- We worked in pairs to measure each other’s head circumferences.
- We used the measurement of Pi (3.14) to calculate the diameter of the circle.
- We then halved the diameter to calculate the radius of the circle.
- We used this measurement to create a circle using the compasses.
We have used our measurements to create a pattern for our fabric. Our pieces have now been cut out and the next step is to begin sewing them together. Check in with us to see how we are doing!
Until next time…
