Using origami in order to teach geometry
Today I'm going to introduce you to the manipulative material called origami. With these videos students can learn how to build 3D shapes easily. Therefore, through this resource, students can apply the theoretical contents of geometry and acquire a meaningful learning. Traditionally, Origami has been associated with Japanese culture, and it is the art of paper folding in order to create different figures. The German pedagogue Friedich Fröebel (1782-1852) was responsible for introducing the origami in schools with the aim of teaching geometric shapes. I think that this material is great because students will learn better the content if they apply it to real-life experiences, so if they create with their own hands the geometric shapes, they will learn better their characteristics. Moreover, students can do origami as a hobby, because it is a relaxing activity to do in their free time.
