The starlight is a 3-D star made from a hexagon that can be lit up with an LED light. Tessellation techniques are used to fold it so strong paper is needed. Hexagons of heavier Canson paper (that we will use to fold an 8th triangle grid in class) will be provided. I will also provide LED pins so you can experience the glow!

Advisories
  • This uses non-square paper: Hexagon
  • Familiarity with basic tessellation techniques helpful but not required.

Supplies

The model is made from a hexagon. Nothing is required of the student as I will provide pre-cut hexagons of Canson art paper. We will be folding an 8th triangle grid in class.
