Unfolding Mathematics With Unit Origami At last-an origamibook designed specifically for mathematics classrooms!Origami books are typically written by origami experts and aimed at origami enthusiasts.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I enjoyed this book, as it *very* clearly illustrated how to assemble units once they are folded. Oh, and the unit is easy to fold. I folded the triangular hexahedron, cube, icosahedron, and octahedron, all without problems. Aimed primarily at math teachers, but a good book for the enthusiast who wants to start on modular origami. Nice job!

Great book for a broad range of ages. You cover angle bisection, segment and shape bisection, flat folding of polygons, regular and non regular. And its simple enough to do at home with your children. I am a math teacher and home school mom...There is lots of math in origami, especially unit origami. You can make a triangular hexahedron, cube, colliding cube and stellated octahedra and ichosahedra. Great book. Anything from Key Curriculum Press is on my list.Hint: Magazines cut into squares make great origami paper. Just make sure the pages are sturdy.
