Patty Paper Geometry

What Do Hamburgers Have to Do with Geometry? Nothing, but the translucent squares of paper used by restaurants to separate hamburger patties have a lot to do with it. Discovering Geometry author Michael Serra brings discovery through paper-folding activities to the classroom with his exciting book Patty Paper Geometry. You may already use paper folding in your classroom. Maybe you tried waxed paper and found it hard to write on or used other paper that you couldnt see through. Patty paper is perfect for geometric investigations:
  • Manufactured in perfect squares
  • Easy to write on
  • Easy to see creases and traces on its great way to explore geometry from a hands-on, tactile approach. And, best of all, its probably the worlds cheapest manipulative: A thousand sheets cost only about six dollars. Patty Paper Geometry includes dozens of activities that:
  • Foster cooperative learning
  • Increase students geometric vocabulary
  • Motivate kids to read, write, and talk about geometry Constructions are performed more accurately and geometric discoveries are made faster with patty paper. At the end of their investigations, students have discovered most of the properties of geometric figures studied in high school geometry courses. Patty Paper Geometry is designed as two books.
  • The first, a blackline-master book, contains 12 chapters of open and guided investigations. Open investigations encourage students to explore their own methods of discovery, while guided investigations provide more direction to students or can be used as a teachers guide. Each chapter includes many spiraled exercise sets, providing constant review.
  • A separate student workbook is also available, containing all of the open investigations as well as some exercise sets.
