The circle is not a flat disc. Instead, it’s a compressed sphere. If we think of it like that, we can actually begin to obtain back all the lost information by folding the circle back into three dimensions. In this fun and dynamic workshop, kids will create, from simple paper circles, all the Platonic solids (out of which we find all of nature composed), and other fascinating fun shapes that they play with at home. Parent help is recommended for younger children to help with folding.

Students will need to purchase paper plates like the one in this link. One place to find these plates is on Amazon.
