Printing

This Cre8ate maths resource looks at challenges derived from printing processes where both logic and geometric thinking are required. In Folding booklets students are given a piece of A4 paper which they fold to form a 16 page booklet and, without cutting the folds in the paper, are challenged to number the pages of their booklet, compare their results and investigate patterns. This task could initially be done for a four, then eight page booklet. Placing adverts requires some careful consideration about the dimensions of each advertisement, and the factors of the size of the page.
