W hy do we choose this topic? Students are not willing to bring their own water bottle. They always buy the water from the tuck shop. Do not reuse those bottles and just throw them away! Not environmental friendly!

• If the volume (V) of the bottle is fixed, we would like to design a water bottle so that its material used (total surface area) is the smallest.

• Total surface area = 2 Base area + total areas of lateral faces
= 2 Base area + perimeter of the base height
Conclusion:
The smaller the perimeter of the base is , the smaller is the total surface area

First, we need to choose the base for our bottle. We start from the
basic figures.

Reflection:After doing the project, we have
learnt :
1.more about geometric skills, calculating skills of different prisms, such as cylinders, cones and spheres
2.information research and presentation skills
3.plotting graphs by using Microsoft Excel
4.The most important thing: we learnt that we can use mathematics to explain a lot of things in our daily lives.

Reflection:Although we faced a lot of difficulties during our project, we never gave up and finally overcame all of them. We widened our horizons and explored mathematics in different aspects in an interesting way. Also , Miss Lee helped us a lot to solve the difficulties. We would like to express our gratitude and sincere thanks to her.

Limitation•Our Maths knowledge is very limited, we wanted to calculate other designs like the calabash or a sphere with a flattened base, but it was to difficult for our level.•Our knowledge in using Microsoft Excel has caused us a lot of technical problems and difficulties.
