This book by a long-time creator will appeal to enthusiasts of mathematics and puzzles as well as fans of modular origami. Over thirty elegant projects are absorbing to make and rewarding to assemble - without glue or scissors. When finished, not only do the projects please the eye and stimulate the imagination, they have a bonus feature: they move, spin or change shape in unique and fascinating ways.All in one place, fully diagrammed - clear step-by-step instructions with thoughts behind the folds. Many have been improved during years of experimentation and experiences of making and teaching."beautiful and elegant designs...immaculate diagrams." British Origami Society"WXYZ model is so iconic...the most elegant model in all of modular origami." trivialknot"his modular creations are fine examples of original and economical folding" David Petty, author of Origami A-B-C and Origami 1-2-3

Proof is central to the new unified A-Level curriculum and to Further Maths and indeed, all mathematical thinking. This essential revision and reinforcement text provides a guide to proof for students from Year 1 to Undergraduate...and for their teachers too.

Use your statistics to solve the questions, shade the answers in to reveal the answers to the picture puzzles. Revise and reinforce your mathematics...mindfully!

For students aged 11-16 - these activities provide a blank numbered grid. Solve the geometry question and match the answer to the grid. Colour the right answers and a puzzle picture emerges. Perfect for teachers and parents to provide an alternative way to reinforce and revise geometry.

10 of the world's great communicators give their perspective on the special nature of one of the numbers between 1-10 - informative and insightful - and fun.

Some leading mathematics educators explore the wonders of their favourite numbers between 1 and 10 - in honour of the inspirational Dick Tahta.

The mathematics of surfaces is a fascinating subject - lying as it does at the heart of much architecture, art and maths, engineering and science. John Sharp's innovative use of sliceforms to explore the properties of surfaces is here produced in a systematic way, providing the reader the tools to build surfaces from paper to explore their mathematical properties. The extensive commentary explains the mathematics behind particular surfaces. Chapters on using computers to generate slices and sample templates complete the book. An invaluable exercise in practical geometry that will stimulate ideas for the student, professionals involved in modelling surfaces and the enthusiast. Contents:· Introduction and Basic Techniques· Contours and profiles· Properties and Types of Surfaces· Surfaces of Revolution· Ruled Surfaces· Surfaces from Equations: Algebraic surfaces· Polyhedra· Variations and explorations· Using the Computer· Templates and further resources

The Big Story for Little Historian series provides a story-led introduction to history for 5-7 year olds. Beautifully illustrated, these are stories for bedtime or school: a springboard to great things! Supporting materials for teacher or parent are available. Book 1 in the series is on the story of the Norman invasion of England in 1066.

EnigMath's original geometry puzzles will appeal to many ages and levels of experience. Full solutions are included.

Coding book that provides projects that can be done in Scratch, Snap and Python for young coders from 7-14 years.

Origami Dots is a collection of intriguing mathematical challenges that come from folding paper. All the challenges are the same, fold the corner of the paper to a given dot and find the area that remains uncovered.
