Countdown Challenge: Platonic Solids - Part I

For Students 7th - 8th
Use a Platonic solids worksheet to record the number of faces, edges, and vertices of five polyhedra whose faces, edges, and vertices are all identical. For each figure, learners write a proof of Euler's formula (F+V=E+2). They create a...
