"Origami Animals"

In this lesson we were taught how to create different origami animals. They taught us the 10 commandments of origami and paper folding. We had to make sure to make crisp folds. The animals that we got to create were a fish, frog, and a dog. We then had to create one of our own, whatever we wanted it to be. After we created our own origami animals we were instructed that we had to create a short story about the animals. We also had to name the different animals. You could incorporate this lesson into a social studies lesson if you were learning about Japan and different art forms they make and design.  I created a bear for my own origami folding.
