Fold a tray from paper then manipulate the design to create different trays. Explore with trial and improvement and use algebra and geometry for the extension tasks. The word document includes a template to cut out for students who may find it difficult to accurately draw the measurements themselves.

It could also be used with KS5 by including stationary points to find the tray with the maximum volume.
