hello everyone mr. Breedlove hear your art teacher your new art teacher at Buchanan Elementary School today and I teach you how to make a snowflake paper I have a normal regular piece of copy paper so this what you need you need newspaper and you need some scissors grown-ups is our you need some smaller scissors kids sit there so you don't cut yourself so ask your mom and dad for scissors and one piece paper alright the song restart this is an origami the snowflakes are origami in a lot of origami starts with square paper paper is not Square it's what shape rectangle so what to make with paper Square first this park is a little tricky so you can make sure you pay attention she going to take one corner of your paper must start with this corner and I'm going to fold it up and like I kind of actually going to make it go this way not straight up not like this may make you go this direction so I was going to make the paper go to this line as Foreman I want to make these two find this line and this line line up as perfect as I can are there unless I think I got them I'm going to hold it down now I'm supposed to fold in you made a triangle right triangle but now we no longer need this rectangle going to cut this off the paper out will have asked where you'll see what I mean in a second so cuz this paper construct a glove use this as your guideline don't go this way you can use this later so hold on to this or sandpaper we are going to stop at the square we made pretty much a perfect well you know we really wanted to be a triangle I swear of a triangle best I want you to take this corner or the corner they're going to touch each other so what's this status bar Corners up right here it's it see that's not aligned right this isn't when the line them up as best as I can then apply finger there and pushed out now I can go back scores of the fold like that melek we met a smaller triangle or the roof to a house or bird and he was trying to look this good of a triangle and made it a small triangle we're going to make a smaller one more time so take this end I started the fool that says it says open that's a little harder to get these two to move but it's easy to get this old move them to take this and old and I landed up with these two guys over here best I can figure on their push back towards the fold. Put this full down really good where are Butterfinger are perfect now you have a triangle we are going to cut on all three sides of a triangle has three sides 123 where to cut on trees besides but there's some rules where to cut one side at a time and we are going to cut got to make sure we leave a little space between his Cuts up to start cutting I'm starting this line right here on the bottom this plan on the bus I'm going to make some cuts that I can go and pretty far niggly whatever shape she wants we need now here's the second rule you have to lease the space to look see you this line right here I going to leave a little bit of space if I cut right here it'll cut too much of a sold off and it was a snowflake a fall apart so I'm going to come down a little bit a little space right there am I cut another weird shape now we'll do it again so I got it right here no really space space I think of me simple shapes like that was kind of complicated shape look I can just do a triangle shape that's just a good think I can fly one more in here but I'm going to wait because now I'm going to do this side this side so if I turn it now I'm going to cut it now I want to make sure I don't cut all the way through to this side or the whole thing will fall apart so I'm going to what did I say I didn't go all the way I stopped like right there be careful not to go all the way up that's it there alright see this one I might do a different state for this cup little space like a left right there and their and I might come pretty far as of this another little one in here but I'm going to leave this face turn it up one more side to cut on some of the room so I can spend here little triangles in here so someday I'm going to go all right now I have this whole place we cut something out of here to make sure don't cut all the way through Sunday like a weird set a rhombus shape but I see I left space there in less space there tell these cool little triangle pieces later I know what's up mess up your location open this up it's sometime they paper sticks together me want to rip it so there is opened up one side frog I'll grab some more now it looks like a bird kind of weird bird open up again be real gentle thing out there you go look at that every was full really great about these just like real snowflakes everyone you make is difference so this is my other one it looks completely different than this one pretty cool I guess the snowflakes paper so this paper was fun and kids really like to do this probably because you're better set an older people because your hands are smaller is it like to make small snowflake so take this paper when do the same thing we do make what shape do you make a square fold it over before landing Sonic right there made where is square-shaped not but I'm leaving clothes, Fold It Again time in a small triangle on the phone one more time pretty trinket for grown-ups but kids do this better same thing at a time when I cut it what is a sun faster I got to be careful see how long I made that kind of made it a little bit too long no, leave that can cut that could a little round shape out of this Ranch I made a tiny one now you keep making me take this folded over cut it Square you do at least one more out of this all out of one sheet of paper I got a great holiday break I'll see you next year
