Magic trick

A project that makes a magic trick where a pack of cards disappear.

This free resource focuses on the making of a magic trick which makes a pack of cards disappear, using complex graphics products made from nets.

Magic tricks use design and mathematics to make them work effectively and this trick uses boxes that must fit together snugly to deceive the audience.

A free activity sheet and handout is available to download below.
