Then make your own paper weaving! There is a poster on the bulletin board wall by the file cabinet with ideas and pre-cut strips of paper. You can use scissors to cut the paper into thinner strips and stack them on top of other strips if you want. Make something interesting. Go beyond the checkerboard!
