Classroom Decorations

Origami

Origami is my favorite activity for two days before Christmas vacation. I use directions from Tomoko Fuse's Unit Origami and Origami Boxes. I use colored copy paper that I've cut to 8.5" square. Its heavy weight (compared to origami paper) makes it great for boxes.

I also like to make polyhedra with PHIZZ units.

Math history charts hang all around my room. If you are distracted, there is always something new to learn.

Students have made many polyhedrons that hang all around my room. I posted directions for making your own.
