The Inside-Out Box: An Analysis of Structures and Space.
Fowler, Marilyn L.
Teaching Children Mathematics, v3 n2 p68-71 Oct 1996
Describes an activity for children of any age to develop spatial sense and explore the effects of transforming, combining, subdividing, and changing geometric figures. Students analyze empty cereal boxes opened flat to determine the specific shape, how it opens and closes, to check maps or sketches against the actual geometry of the box, and write a design brief.
