1) You need to get your hands on the book "Teaching Mathematics" by Max Sobel
and Evan Maletsky.  It has ALL the hands on materials for conics.
Additionally, it is a great book for someone wanting to teach mathematics.
The wax paper or patty paper folds are terrific!

2) There is a great NCTM publication called "Dancing Curves" which is a
phenomenal tool for teaching the conics.
