Art and Math Workshop<br />
Below are two photos of Carol Bier’s terrific Art and Math workshop, where about 17 children turned paper<br />
plates into a ball through folding of circles into tetrahedra. Technically, the ball was an icosahedron that was<br />
then passed around like a soccer ball. However, a soccer ball has a different isometry (its faces are pentagons<br />
+ hexagons).<br />
We constructed the icosahedron from <strong>20</strong> tetrahedra, each one made from one paper plate. Gillian Zolot was<br />
particularly fascinated that it was all made from paper plates. Among those present were Rashi and Sammy<br />
Roselin,with grandparents and Joel; Noah Bromberg with Emi; Andy Rosenthal; Gabriel & Gillian Zolot;<br />
plus Carol Bier and Jerry Cooper’s three grandchildren.<br />
The workshop was enjoyed by children and adults alike.<br />
