Without Geometry Life Is Pointless
Paper folding benefits spatially mathematically talented students by exposing them to transformational geometry. It begins with using hands and motion to understand something intellectually as well as tactilely. Inherent in all square or circular paper folding is the wonderful world of geometry including correct geometric vocabulary. In this workshop, participants will leave with several models in hand to enrich and challenge the mathematically talented student. Come prepared to be challenged be sure to bring your sense of humor.
