Origami
I'd be interested to know if anyone knows any way of using origami in lessons. I use it for predictions using a "predictogram", but nothing else.

I used the Story of Sadako in a class and we all made paper cranes on the anniversary of Hiroshima. One of those memorable classes for me as I was born the same month and year as Sadako. She could be enjoying her granddaughter if this episode in history hadn't taken place.

Mmm, ultra-creative as always Sally, I thought it might be you who would be the first to reply.
To be honest, I had to look up the name on the internet, I imagine she's more well known in other parts of the world. She sounds like some sort of Origami heroine. Incidently, there seems to be an origami tulip campaign for women's rights in Turkey right now.
This is the first link that I found that tells her stort AND explains how to make the cranes:
