Puzzle cube, bisection: division by two - screwy surface

Task: Divide the cube into pieces of equal volume

This task could be integrated into any level of education from primary school. We proposed the task as a contest and supported the student in their explorations. The results varied from two simple prisms to a higher number of very creative shapes. 

Here, we present one example, but you can create your own or look for other ideas in our Printables account.
