Windsor+Stadium



The Windsor Wolves are our local Rugby League Team. They are currently constructing a new stadium for their home ground on Rifle Range Road.

Look at the net of the stadium so far. Can you identify the three dimensional shapes that will make up the building when it is completed?



TASK The stadium being built is very traditional. Imagine that the Hawkesbury Council has commissioned you as architect for the project. your brief is to create a stadium, using regular three dimensional shapes, that is creative yet functional and acts as a landmark in our community. STAGE TWO - may draw or create a model of a stadium design. You must use more than three 3D shapes. Must name and describe the 3D shapes used with labels or through an oral presentation.

STAGE THREE - Must accurately sketch (using computer programs such as sketch up or a suitable program online or isometric grid paper) their stadium design. - You may build a model if you wish (straws and cardboard will be provided). - Need to use at least one type or pyramid and prism and explain the properties of each. -Need to identify each 3D shape and it's properties either with labels or an oral presentation

Challenge - Google 'polyhedra' for a huge variety of 3D shapes that you may not have learnt yet. Remember that you need to be able to describe them to use them and they need to be practical!
