This is a book, yeah a book! Consists of several pages bound on the side, which recede and expand into the binding, producing a three dimensional view - or four or five. My record is 25! (What do you call the twenty fifth dimension? Five squared?) We will begin with paste paper for covers and while its drying we can fold, and fold and fold. ( I do so love to fold) We’ll do some practice sheets and a couple cute little models. If time permits maybe even a flexigon.
