Abstract
The approach of combining GeoGebra and origami is well accepted among students in
the school "Petro Kuzmjak" where it is used to teach geometry lessons. This article elaborates on
how to introduce students (upper elementary and high school students, age 14-18) to Platonic
solids and their properties through combination of GeoGebra and origami activities. Some of the
important mathematical concepts related to these well-known geometrical solids can be explained
to students applying hands-on activities along with educational software.peerReviewe
