Room 13 and 1's Mighty, Magic, Mysterious Measurement Maths

We were put in groups and had to come up with a question about....
Perimeter
Length
Speed
Height
Weight
Time
Area

We then needed to use equipment to help solve our question.

Next we had a go at figuring it out in our groups.

Mr Lobb and Mr Arnold took videos and photos of us solving our question.

We have been doing flower and leaf art. 
In the flower art we had to....

1. draw a picture of a flower on some cardboard.
2. Cut out the flower into its different pieces.
3. Glue the pieces onto another piece of cardboard with PVA glue.
4. Cover the pieces with watered down PVA glue.
5. set to dry

We are going to paint these flowers and then use them to print art.

How can having a growth mindset help us learn?

Can you think of 1 area of learning where you have a growth      mindset, and one area where you have a fixed mindset?
