I chose to build a NinjaGo Lego for my five year old cousin because that’s his favorite television show at the moment.
Some of the challenges of this project for me was staying on task because I kept getting distracted during work time. Constructing the toy was fairly simple but painting it was pretty hard because the paint we had in our class looked gross once it was put on the cardboard. I decided to buy red spray paint on my own and it looks ten times better now.
I liked this project because I got a refresher of finding surface area and how to find the volume of different shapes.
The difference between surface area and volume is that surface area in the area that is on the face of the object and volume is the area on the inside of the object.
