Fold Models from Kite Paper
Create translucent origami models ~ in wonderful colors ~ to make enchanting window decorations. Oh, and yes, there is plenty of math in these projects.

Along with this useful ebook, you will receive weekly emails from StickyMath@UnCommon-Core.com. I send information like: teacher tips, educational ideas, book reviews, curated lists, reviews of educational sites, and free first drafts of products that I’m creating for my TPT store.
