More than half of California students (66%) don’t meet common core standards in Math.  Various attempts have been made to improve math education, one of them is teaching math through origami art. 

Origami Math Genius (OMG) is a curriculum developed for integrating art and math in K-12 education.  It visualizes mathematical concepts through hands-on origami art.  As illustrated in the above heart origami, each fold is a mathematical performance on fraction, arithmetic, and geometry.  Teaching math through origami has been scientifically proved more effective than traditional teaching.  OMG has been taught at schools, children Museums, and libraries internationally.  More information on OMG can be found at http://www.bijian.com/omg.html​

Oxnard Public Library offers free OMG classes, the next one is held at 4-5pm on October 12, 2015.  The library is located at 251 South A street, Oxnard, CA 93030.  Phone: (805) 385-7500.
