We have been working around the amount of wood we are going to need in order to build six nest houses for birds.
Soon we realized we just measured and cutted out four houses so we still have to make two extra houses. We splited the work in four teams, sparrows, owls, swallows and eagles. More or less all of them finished at the same time.
At a certain point some schoolmates from Tintins came to explain their experience with sqare meters. We realized both projects have some similiarities. At least at the point we are now trying to calculate the surface of wood we need.
It was really interesting the conversation about areas. Some Alicies gave some interesting comments about areas and what we should do if we want to order the right amount of wood.
The last step we did it was to try to fit as many pieces of the six houses in the sqare meter we made on the floor within the last session. We all conclude we may need more than one square meter of wood.
