Origami Bookmark

I know that some of you will already know how to make one of these because we have done it at school but others may not, so I am going to go through it step-by-step.  You will need a square piece of paper, a glue stick, a white sticky label or white paper, a pair of scissors and a black felt tipped pen.

 

 

 

 

 

I started with an A5 piece of paper (that’s half of an A4 sheet) and created a square by lining up a vertical edge with a horizontal edge, creating a diagonal fold (as I showed you in my previous origami blog).  Fold your square piece of paper diagonally to make a triangle.

 

 

 

 

 

Fold up the bottom right corner of your triangle so that the corner touches the top corner and the edges line up and crease it.

 

 

 

 

 

Do the same as above with the bottom left corner of the triangle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unfold then fold the top corner of the top layer of the triangle down so that the corner touches the centre of the bottom edge.

 

 

 

 

 

Fold the two bottom corners of the triangle up again and tuck them in behind the fold you have just made and crease (make sure they are tucked all the way in).

 

 

 

 

Now you are ready to decorate your bookmark.  This example is of a frog I made.  I cut out two white circle and stuck them onto some green card.

 

 

 

 

 

I cut out around the white circles leaving some green card showing and drew on some eyes with a black felt tipped pen.

 

 

 

 

 

I stuck the edges of the eyes to the back of my bookmark and drew on some nostrils to make the frog’s face.

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some other examples.  I know of one young man who may like the fox and I think another young lady could make a wolf bookmark.

 

 

Hello all,

Hope you have all had a great week and have managed to squeeze in some time for reading every day. I have read some brilliant book reviews on the blog this week – it’s great to hear abut the books you have read and what you think of them. Maybe your reviews will inspire someone else to read the book!

Pop onto the chat and let us know what you are reading at the moment.

If you like, you could think about the following BIG READ TASK…

THREE WISHES
A genie lands in the middle of the story and grants the main characters three wishes.

What do they wish for and why?

Look forward to chatting!

Good morning everyone.

Mr Walker here again with another of the animals that I have seen recently.

This is a Chimney Sweeper moth and it is about 2cm wide between the wing tips.  Normally we don’t see them until June, but they are about earlier this year because it has been warmer.  They fly about during the day and you can often see them in roadside verges. I like the white tips and frilly edges of their wings.

They don’t live in chimneys, so why do you think they are called Chimney Sweepers?

Bye for now.

Mr Walker

Drama is a graphic novel. The first edition was published 2012 and printed in USA.

Drama is a book where Callie and her friends help plan the performance and make it happen. Her friend Liz made the costumes. Callie kept meeting other boys. At the end she was in charge of making the cannon pop. In the rehearsals the cannon had to pop with confetti but it wouldn’t pop big also they ran out of the confetti poppers so at the end the didn’t do it. By Orla.
