Description
Box House systems are a plane with a 'cone point' or multiple 'cone points'.
There are several lessons that can be adapted for use in grades 5-12. It is suggested to start by introducing single corner systems and working up towards two corner systems. Paths along the surface can be thought of as a bug walking along the surface, wrapping around the edges when it gets to one.
Rules:
1. All activity occurs on the surface.
2. Straight Lines are like ribbons when wrapping a present.
3. To wrap a ribbon around a corner, it requires 'cutting the ribbon'. Lines that travel through the cone point become harder to define.
4. Angles, length, area have their usual interpretations.
