  9. Three Tab Foldable 1. Fold an 8 ½ by 11 piece of paper in half the long way. 2. Hold the long way and fold it in thirds by making two folds. 3. Cut down the two folds to the fold in the center of the paper. 4. Fold the three flaps down. 5. Fold the two side flaps on to the center panel.

  10. Pyramid Fold Directions: 1. Fold the sheet into a taco. Cut off the excess rectangular tab formed by the fold. 2. Open the folded taco and refold it like a taco the opposite way to create an X-fold. 3. Cut one of the valleys to the center of the X, or the midpoint, and stop. This forms two triangular flaps. 4. Glue one of the flaps under the other, forming a pyramid.

  11. Envelope Fold Fold a sheet of paper into a taco forming a triangle. Cut off the leftover piece. 2. Open the folded taco and refold it the opposite way forming another taco and an X-fold pattern. 3. Open the taco fold and fold the corners toward the center point of the X forming a small square. 4. Trace this square onto another sheet of paper. Cut and glue it to the inside of the envelope. Pictures can be placed under or on top of the tabs.

  12. Shutter Fold 1. Begin as if you were going to make a hamburger but instead of creasing the paper, pinch it to show the midpoint. 2. Fold the outer edges of the paper to meet at the pinch, or mid-point, forming a shutter fold.

  13. Double Shutter Fold 1. Make a shutter fold 2. Fold the shutter fold in half like a hamburger. Crease well. 3. Open the project and cut along the two inside valley folds. 4. These cuts will form four doors on the inside of the project

  14. Bound Book 1. Take two sheets of paper and fold them separately like a hamburger. Place the papers on top of each other, leaving one-sixteenth of an inch between the mountain tops. 2. Mark both folds one inch from the outer edges. 3. On one of the folded sheets, cut slits in the middle to the marked spot on both sides. 4. On the second folded sheet, start at one of the marked spots and cut the fold between the two marks. 5. Take the cut sheet from step 3 and fold it like a burrito. Place the burrito through the other sheet and then open the burrito. 6.Fold the bound pages in half to form an eight-page book.

  17. Layered Book 1. Stack two sheets of paper so that the back sheet is one inch higher than the front sheet. 2. Fold up the bottom edges of the paper to form four tabs. Align the edges so that all of the layers or tabs are the same distance apart. 3. When all tabs are the same size, crease the paper to hold the tabs in place and staple or glue the sheets together. 4.Glue the sheets together along the valley or inner center fold or staple them along the mountain top.

  18. Pocket Foldable 1. Fold a sheet of paper in half like a hamburger. 2. Open the folded paper and fold one of the long sides up two inches to form a pocket. Refold along the hamburger fold so that the newly formed pockets are on the inside. 3. Glue the outer edges of the two-inch fold with a small amount of glue. 4. Optional: Glue a cover around the pocket book.

  19. Three Quarter Foldable 1. Make a two-tab book and raise the left-hand tab. 2. Cut the tab off at the top fold line. 3. A larger book of information can be made by gluing several three-quarter books side by side. 4.Sketch or glue a graphic to the left, write one or more questions on the right, and record answers and information under the right tab.

  20. Folded Table or Chart 1. Fold a sheet of paper into the number of vertical columns needed to make the table or chart. 2. Fold the horizontal rows needed to make the table or chart. 3.
