In this unit you will learn to sketch nets for different shapes. This is a
really important skill if you are designing gift boxes to hold things such
as chocolates, toys or jewellery.

what is the usual shape of the box? You will probably say
a cuboid, but it is possible to have boxes that are cubes,
pyramids or prisms as well. If you are working in a factory
that makes the boxes, you need to know what to do to
make the different shape boxes!

Choose a simple 3D shape and draw a net for that shape on a piece of paper.
Cut the net out, using a pair of scissors, and fold your net to make the shape.
What do you think of your net? Did it fold together accurately to
make the shape or did some corners not meet? Did you have any
faces missing, or faces that were the wrong shape?
M
d Give yourself a score out of 10 for your net, with 1 being not very good and 10
being perfect. How could you improve your score if you made the net again?

When you are cooking or baking you need to measure out ingredients.
E
Solid ingredients such as rice, pasta or vegetables can be weighed on capacity
kitchen scales. When you measure liquid ingredients such as milk, oil or volume
water you will need to use a measuring jug.
If you want the perfect pancakes, you need to measure the correct
amount of milk!
