How to Tear Paper

Rebecca Ludens
If you have paper with a white core, you may want the white to show when you tear the sheet. To do that, you will hold the part of the paper that you want to keep in your left hand, and then tear the part you will not be using slowly towards yourself as shown here. Tear in short sections and use your thumbs to guide the tear.
