Students write and illustrate their own original problem for each face, cut out the separate pieces, crease the tabs and glue the pieces into a 3D shape, and either swap dice with a partner to solve each other's problems or solve every face themselves in a self-contained version. A four-category rubric grades handwriting/assembly neatness, problem accuracy, completeness of all 12 faces, and creativity of the illustrations.
