The "Nets of a Cube - Geometry Manipulative Set" allows students to explore the connection between 2D outlines and 3D objects by folding and unfolding manipulatives that represent nets of a cube. There are six nets in total, three of which can be folded into cubes, making it an ideal tool for creating multiple-choice questions on standardized tests. The set also encourages students to learn about math vocabulary, properties of platonic solids, measurement, calculation of area and volume, and percent error calculations. A PDF containing lesson ideas is included in the downloads. Printing instructions are provided with the design, which was directly based on the needs of geometry and elementary math teachers. The models can be printed flat and then folded into shape using tape or glue to hold their form as a cube. Designs were created in Tinkercad and explore the flexibility of print material to create moving hinges that appeal to students.
