Assignment 6: "The Platonic Solids' Constructions":

Visit the following websites.  Each link will open in a new window.  Follow the instructions on the page and construct the five Platonic Solids.  Creativity points will be awarded for different materials other than regular paper and/or for decorations. 

Be sure that your name is clearly labeled on each of the solids.  Turn all five Platonic Solids in at once to the teacher.  Do this by having all five Platonic Solids in one bag, or box with your name on it.
