Make
Your Own 3-D POP-UP Paper Cranes!
 |
Huge
CRANIACS!
Thanks
to their classmate Amy, students
at Harriett Todd P.S. in Orillia, Ontario* are
making 3-D cranes as part of an integrated study of the Whooping crane
migration.
Try
It!
Here are Amy's simple step-by-step directions:
| Step 1: Take two pieces of white paper or card stock. Fold each one in half. |  |
| Step
2: Nest the two sheets of paper together. Put the
folded edge closest to you and draw a crane silhouette on the
outside
of the folded paper with the base of the bird along the fold. |
 |
| Step
3: Keeping the papers together, cut out the crane. Do not
cut along the folded edge. |
 |
| Step
4: Draw the beak, eye, neck and head colouring on both sides
of each crane silhouette. |
 |
| Step 5: Make a base. With the cutouts nested into one another, glue or tape the crane silhouettes to the base. |  |
