Teach geometry, volume, ratio, measurement,  scissor & tape skills, model making, compression, potential energy, 3D modeling, spatial reasoning and more.  Introducing the Paper Spring and Cube Bundle! This packet contains step-by-step illustrated instructions to use ordinary strips of paper to make extraordinary learning tools. The Cube project also comes with (optional) printable template pages. 
 
Paper Cubes and Paper Springs packets offer a low-cost, high-impact STEM experience that builds fine motor skills, creativity, and cross-curricular connections—all while keeping students engaged through play. Perfect for classrooms, maker spaces, and after-school programs
 
Paper Spring (best for early Elementary grades):
Use strips of paper to create bouncing, wiggling, wobbling components. Use them on their own or with other shapes or projects. Bring energy and motion to your classroom with the Paper Springs Project! Students cut, fold, and connect paper into bouncy springs, discovering how flat materials can be engineered for movement. Along the way, they explore forces, elasticity, and design thinking—while strengthening fine motor skills and creativity. Whether used in STEM builds, art projects, or playful experiments, paper springs turn simple supplies into a fun, hands-on lesson in physics and problem-solving.

Paper Cube (best for upper Elementary, Middle and High School grades):
Use strips of paper to create open-ended building blocks. Explore ratio, proportion, measurement, geometry, spatial reasoning and more!
 Turn a flat piece of paper into a 3D learning tool! The Paper Cube Project makes geometry hands-on, helping students see how flat strips transform into 3D cubes that can be connected to make endless projects.
 Create customizable cubes for math concepts, storytelling, or basic structures.  Explore ratios, measurement, and spatial reasoning while creating fun cube based projects.
