Yep, it's flexagon season once again! Last night I cut up the pieces of mailing tape in preparation for class. All evening as I worked, the rolls of paper rustled and twisted nearby, straining to twist themselves into tighter rolls. By morning, they were long tight sticks, and I had a hard time getting them into a bag to transport to class.
I made a test flexagon with this new type of mailing tape (thank you, SF!), and A kindly decorated it for me as a sample to my students. Stay tuned for the work my students do on this great puzzle...
Here's a link to my favorite hexa-hexa-flexagon numbering system.
