Paper Folding

Christmas is right around the corner and all sorts of Christmas crafts will be done in classrooms. When doing activities that require paper folding it may be helpful to use the terms “hamburger style” and “hot dog style” to help you students understand the orientation of the paper when they are folding.  Hamburger is folding top to bottom making a final half similar to hamburgers.  Hot dog is folding side to side making a longer half similar to hot dog buns.
