Dogsthorpe Infant School presents...
LOCKDOWN LEGO CHALLENGE 36
This week Maddie and Greg in our Science video are talking about extreme explorers of the deserts.
​
One great place to explore is the Great Pyramids. Amazing structures that only exists because of a piece of string with a stone at one end called a 'Plumb Bob'.
​
In Maths we learn about shapes and The Great Pyramid is a fantastic shape and it has lasted hundreds of years. Do you know what a pyramid shape is? If you don't watch the video.
Your LEGO challenge this week is to build a giant pyramid. You can use Lego, Duplo or other materials but your model must be pyramid shape.
GOOD LUCK! Don't forget to send us a photo or video of your model of the Great Pyramids of Giza.
DID YOU KNOW? Each stone of the Great Pyramid weighs 2.5 tonnes and there are 2 million of these stones forming the pyramid. Each stone was put in place every 3 minutes and each pyramid took 14 years to build. All built with mathematics, a piece of string and lots of hard work.
