Learning to Make Origami

Learning to Make Origami Learn How to Create Origami ChaptersEasy Origami: Simple FoldsA Word on PaperHow to Make Origami FlowersHow to Make an Origami CranePerhaps every child in the world has made and played with an origami fortune teller â€" it was certainly my first brush with folded paper creation.Of course, at the time I had no idea I was manipulating a genuine origami design... and, quite possibly, neither did/do other children on the planet.Have you ever made one? Have you ever made a paper aeroplane, a paper boat or even paper flowers?  Did you know you were actually practising origami?The art of creating shapes out of paper is centuries old; an exacting exercise that teaches patience, discipline and helps develop fine motor skills â€" much the way handwriting does.But making an origami dragon is much more fun than practising penmanship, even if it does offer substantial educational benefits.A part of origami’s appeal is that you don’t need scissors, glue or glitter to adorn your creations, just square paper and knowledge of basic folding technique.That is what your Superprof offers up today: we’re going to look at some simple origami creations, a few methods to enhance your origami and finish up with some more complex designs.Are you ready to learn the art of paper folding?

Image by 995645 from PixabayA long time ago, the paper art known as origami involved cutting as well as folding and, to be sure, there are still paper arts that involve snipping: découpage is an example of such that is currently en vogue. The only cutting you may need to do to make origami animals is reducing a standard sheet of paper to a square â€" square paper is the standard in origami.Starting with a square of paper, fold the paper in half to form a rectangle. Be sure that the corners are aligned before putting pressure on the folded edge. Once you have a defined edge, unfold the paper. Congratulations! You have just executed your first mountain fold.Now, flip your paper over and repeat the exercise. Align the corners so that your new fold is perpendicular to the one you’ve already made, making sure your paper has a marked crease, and then unfold. Excellent! Now you’ve mastere d the valley fold.These two are the most basic and the most important of all origami folds. Indeed, every origami incorporates either a mountain or a valley, or some combination thereof. Another easy fold is called a pleat. Just like pleats in drapes or clothing, origami pleats can give your work extra depth.To make a pleat, measure off one-third of the length of your paper and then fold along that line. For example, if you are working with a 30 cm square, make your fold at 10 cm.Once properly creased, flip your folded paper over and fold the other edge to meet the line of the first fold. Press your folds firmly before releasing. Your pleat should resemble the letter Z.If you happen to have a road map, you can see this pleating in action. Or, before the next heatwave, you may want to pleat a paper fan...Crimping is a lot like pleating but on a bit smaller scale. You might say that crimping involves putting a notch into your design while leaving the rest of the paper uncreased.To mak e an effective crimp, start by making a mountain fold and then restore your paper to its open position.  Next, somewhere along the first quarter to third of the page, make another fold, as though you were making a pleat.The next move really depends on you: how deep of a crimp do you want?You can make a shallow crimp by folding the paper back at just a centimetre or you could go for a more generous one by folding back at five centimetres.The important part is that your folds do not run across the entire width of the paper. Perhaps you might visualise a small-bodied Z with long tongues on the top and bottom.These are basic folding techniques to get you started in creating origami; you will also need to know a few ‘bases’: folding patterns that can be used in creating many different origami shapes. We’ll start with the most common.The square base (or preliminary base): fold your paper diagonally; again fold corner to corner. Raise one of the flaps, squash it down and fold; repeat with the other side.The kite base: fold your paper diagonally and reopen. Using that fold as a central axis, bring the right corner to the centre, followed by the left corner. Your paper should now resemble a kite.The bird base: it starts with a square base but gets a bit more involved; ultimately, you end up with a long diamond.The frog base: considerably more steps than any of the bases discussed thus far.The fish base: fish are a symbol of peace and contentment; you too will be happy to hang brightly coloured fish around your room!Explaining each of these bases is a complex undertaking and, if you are the type of person who needs to see to understand, perhaps looking at diagrammes would be more helpful.Join the discussion: why is origami integral to Japanese culture? You can use any type of paper to practise your folds but, when it comes to creating, origami paper is best! Image by Nhelia from PixabayA Word on PaperYou could certainly use any type of paper to practise your folds and bases but it is recommended that, once you start creating origami art, you use only origami paper.This type of paper is more durable and resilient than ordinary paper, the better to hold your creases and folds. Also, you may select a two-tone paper to give your creations added flair.  Best of all: origami comes pre-cut into squares!Before you rush out to Hobbycraft and buy out their supply of folding paper, there are a few things you should know.Folding paper comes in all colours, grades and sizes.Your ideal starter pack is kami paper; it is two-sided â€" meaning it is white on one side and coloured on the other. It is thin, smooth and holds creases really well.If you are looking for a more versatile paper, Tant would be for you. Made in Japan, it is very flexible and comes in many colours. Its biggest downside is that it does tear rather easily.Washi paper is handmade using long cellulose fibres. Very strong and durable, this is the elite of origami paper.Many craft stores stock all types of origami paper including Japanese paper. Just ask the helpful clerks to direct you to the paper arts section  to see for yourself what is available.We have just enough time left to tell you about a few origami projects you might undertake before you chime in on why origami is so important to the Japanese...How to Make Origami FlowersNow that you have raided the crafts store and bought all the paper you need for your origami projects, let’s start out with a relatively simple origami flower.Fold the paper of your choice into a kite base (see above) and rotate it so that the open flaps are at the top. Fold the first flap down, exposing the two, narrow-angled flaps.Fold those two flaps at a 45 degree  angle to the downturned fold you just made, and then fold t he last flap back. Voila! A two-dimensional flower!  If you’d like, you may use pinking shears or scissors to define the petal edges.Are you ready for some more intricate flowers?Kusudama is the Japanese art of sewing or glueing individual origami together; in this case, we would make multiple flowers and then fasten them together to make a ball.These step-by-step instructions will guide you to getting it right on the first try but we do offer this helpful tip: you might use smaller paper squares to make the individual flowers.Did you know that ninja stars have just about the same appeal as flowers do?If you lead an origami for kids workshop, your young warriors might like to make these rather than paper blooms.Start with two pieces of origami paper side by side. It would lend a neat effect if your papers were of different colours.Fold both sheets in half lengthwise, and then again, so that you end up with two long, narrow strips. Now fold each strip in half to make a guiding crea se.Fold the bottom half of each strip 90 degrees  to the right; flip the folded strip over and repeat with the top half, folding it to the left. Repeat with the second strip.Your little origami warriors are going to be so excited to see their stars come to life! The Iconic crane looks difficult but is easy to make Image by Ennelise Napoleoni-Bianco from PixabayHow to Make an Origami CraneCranes have special meaning in Japanese culture; they symbolise hope and healing; peace and long life. You can learn more about origami cranes in our history of origami article.In light of that, we could hardly close this article out without any folding instructions for the most renown of all origami models.This is an easy-to-intermediate model involving only one sheet of paper. It starts with a square base and follows 22 precise steps.To make the prettiest crane, you might use multi-coloured paper or even foil paper... just make sure that it can withstand multiple folds without tearing.Once you’ve mastered how to make the iconic paper crane, you might move on to more intricate origami designs; you may even want to try your hand at making paper. It’s not that hard!With Christmas just around the corner, now is the time to think about how you’ll wrap all of those gifts; using an origami butterfly to identify each parcel instead of a name tag would make your offerings so much more personal!Now discover the poignant symbolism of origami.

Volunteer With HEART Jeanette Price - Heart Math Tutoring

Volunteer With HEART Jeanette Price - Heart Math Tutoring Volunteer With HEART: Jeanette Price Volunteer With HEART: Jeanette Price April 7, 2015 Jeanette Price is a veteran volunteer and proctor with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. She is part of the National Alumnae Association for West Charlotte High School. While Jeanette was at Alexander Graham Middle School with the after-school program Bulldogs Matter,  she was asked to help students with math homework. She was a little uncomfortable at first because, she said, the subject was “not her strong suit,” but she saw a need for extra support.  A sixth grade girl at Bulldog Matters explained how they were being taught in the classroom, and Price became more ease with tutoring the subject. She learned about HEART four years ago and thought it would be a good way to keep working with children and continue learning about math education. Her first school was Rama Road, working with two third graders. When HEART moved from Rama Road, Jeanette followed the program to Billingsville Elementary where she works with two second graders. “The students are eager to come to HEART when you go to their classroom to pick them up,” she said. How and why did you become a volunteer with HEART? “I have a passion for children and felt HEART Tutoring would be an excellent opportunity to share my time with elementary students in a math program. This has been a great experience for me.” What are some of your favorite moments from working with the students? “I am delighted to see smiles and happiness as they gain confidence and achieve math concept goals and activities on a particular lesson. There have been times when my student asks me to have ‘Ms. Padgett,’ a HEART Program Coordinator, do their assessment when they feel they are ready to move to another level. There was a time when I was absent and they asked, ‘Where were you last week?’ I feel I am having a positive influence on their learning experience.” What would you tell someone who is thinking about becoming a volunteer? “It’s the best hour spent â€" on Thursdays at Billingsville. I have two second graders who are excited about learning math and love having the one-on-one attention. They are my little friends whom I enjoy working with and giving encouragement so that they will have a positive attitude about math. The program is fun and uses games to support thinking and learning math skills. I love using all the visual aids: connecting cubes, deck of cards, ten frames cards, domino cards, bowls and, of course, pencil and paper. A Program Coordinator is on site at each session with your materials and ready to assist.” Want to volunteer? Heart will need more volunteers for the 2015/2016 school year! With a commitment of one hour per week, community members can help a struggling student gain the skills and confidence he/she needs for long-term success. Click here to express your interest!

Why your schools 11 initiative should include digital literacy training for your teachers

Why your school’s 11 initiative should include digital literacy training for your teachers Going 1:1 or BYOD? Don’t forget about digital literacy training for your teaching staff. As the world moves further into the twenty-first century, school and district leaders are encountering mounting pressure to realign, rethink and reinvent traditional education practices at their schools in order to meet the needs of today’s students - those ubiquitous digital natives. 1:1 (or BYOD) initiatives are by no means a new phenomenon in our schools and districts. However, while many of our classrooms have been transitioning to a 1:1 initiative over the past few years, many education leaders continue to struggle with planning and implementing successful technology rollouts at their schools. Digital technology is fundamentally changing how teachers teach. Simply giving each student their own device will not magically result in better learning outcomes - unless you also address their teacher’s digital literacies and competencies. And as a school leader, you play a crucial role in guiding your teachers into the digital age. Possessing digital skills and being digitally literate are two markedly different things. And as we see time and time again, without the right teacher training, education initiatives have a tendency to crash and burn. Schools and district leaders who are considering launching or who are currently involved in a 1:1 initiative need to make professional development for their teachers a core component of their rollout plan. As this Edutopia article argues: “While individual educators can develop the skills necessary to help students succeed in the new economy, if that capacity does not spread throughout the school, and if the school lacks the tools needed for teachers to effectively instruct in the digital world, ultimately, students will suffer.” It’s not just about helping your teachers become technically savvy. Laying the groundwork for a successful 1:1 initiative starts with providing the right training for teachers on the effective use of digital tools and technology. Schools and districts need to implement a solid digital literacy training program that empowers their educators to make the successful transition to a technology-rich classroom environment. Digital literacy also needs to be a significant element in this process. As digital tools and technology become more and more standard in classrooms, savvy school and district leaders need to recognize that all their teachers can benefit from effective digital literacy training and work proactively to develop a comprehensive technology support and teacher training program for all teaching staff. As Alan November states, “adding a digital device to the classroom without a fundamental change in the culture of teaching and learning will not lead to significant improvement.” In the end, 1:1 programs can only be as effective as the teachers leading them on a day-to-day basis. Implementing 1:1 technology is simply not enough. Many teachers struggle with their continually evolving role in teaching and using technology in their classrooms as well as how technology is shifting the way their students learn. And without the right digital literacy training, teachers will inevitably struggle with finding meaningful ways to engage students with technology and equip them with the 21st-century skills they will needto be globally competitive citizens. Before teachers can effectively facilitate the use of a new tool or device in their classroom, they need the training to understand how a particular tool can effectively enhance student learning outcomes. Digital literacy training for your teaching staff is an essential to a successful 1:1 digital initiative. Teach Away has partnered with Teachers College, Columbia University, to offer an online digital literacy training program for K-8 teachers.
