Hoksina's stellated dodecahedron... in the works! |
Jaden's strategy- build it flat, then fold it into three dimensions. |
Folding the cuboctohedron. Squares and equilateral triangles are the two-dimensional polygons that make up this complex polyhedron. |
We also explored some "nets" of the regular polyhedrons we've been working with.
A "net" is the "unfolded" figure of a polyhedron. So, the net for a cube looks like this:
We tried folding some nets but we ran out of time!
(Comment heard as we noticed the time: "How come math class is so short? We never get to finish with the good stuff!")
