Making constructions with paper is called origami and is considered an art (Royo, 2002). The objective for many fans of origami is to design new figures never constructed before. From the point of view of mathematics education, origami is an interesting didactic activity (Cipoletti & Wilson, 2004; Fairbairn, 2008). Here we propose to help High School students understand new mathematic concepts, and to revise concepts already known, through the origami activity of building a cube.
