Origami Frogs




"Go! Go! Go!" The class cheers as three students in the class race their frogs across the finish line! On Monday, Mrs. Braymer showed us how to fold a note card into an origami frog. Origami is the Japanese art form of folding paper into shapes and figures. Next, we decorated our frogs and gave them names. After that, Mrs. Braymer made a start and a finish line on the carpet in our room. Three students at a time raced their origami frogs by pushing down on the back of it to make them jump. The winners in our class were Adrian and Arely.

Wow that sounds like a fun activity. Could you please tell us how you make them? We also loved the pictures! It is neat to see what other fourth graders look like!
