Tis the Season, and who couldn’t use a crash course on cutting the perfect paper snowflake?
I’m a geometry geek with a deficit in the calculation department, so I’m a big fan of Vi Hart. Her smart, snappy, creative take on geometry and mathematics is my kind of learning. Her unorthodox approach has taken off in a virtual wildfire, and now she’s a full-time ‘mathemusician’ with the Kahn Academy, the leaders in online math education.
Watch the 4 min. video then grab some scissors and awe your neighbors…Pay attention class, she’s on a roll!
Infinite possibility!
My brain hurts just watching. I’m sticking with construction paper chains . . . .
She does talk a little fast! 😉 I have to stop the videos and take a breath!
What a lovely variation on a classic!
thanks for checking out the post, hope you have fun making snowflakes!
