As a child, I loved making origami, and I think origami lends itself naturally to studying geometry, so I love the idea of turning making origami into a math lesson. This is a really good whole-group activity because it allows everyone to follow along and be interested in what is going on. It is especially nice for ELLs because by seeing you work on your box simultaneously through the projector, these students are not as restricted by the language barrier.
