EPTIt's a 2D hexagon that you can fold and when you unfold it, the "face" of the hexagon is different. And you can do this up to 6 times. You make it by folding a strip of paper. Does anyone know what im talking about?

You start by taking a strip of paper and folding it in triangles. It's looks like a flat hexagon. You fold it in some crazy way and when you reopen it, it's a completely different color/pattern but still the same hexagonal shape. Ugh this is bothering me We made these in math class today | ||
