Teach me Tuesday - Week 6!

It was Teach me Tuesday again today. We really enjoyed both of our lessons. First up, Feifei and Jennifer taught us how to make origami folding heart boxes. They did a really great job explaining the procedure to us, and were really patient when we needed help too!

Here's the instructions of how to make a heart box.
Start on blank side

1. Fold squared paper in half horizontally and then diagonally.
2. Fold all corners into the centre point
3. Open up and flip over
4. Fold one corner into the first crease and repeat on the opposite side
5. Fold again to the next crease and repeat on the opposite side
6. Fold again on both sides
7. Rotate 90 degrees. Take one flap and align it with the centre crase. Repeat on the other side.
8. Flatten it down. Take the triangles and bring it to the middle. Repeat on the other side.
9. Fold the top point into the centre and fold the flap in 1/2.
10. Repeat instructions 7-10 on the other side
11. Now it should be able to open up
12. Then fold the top flaps into a heart shape (optional)
13. You are finished!

Next we had a chocolate chip cookie making lesson with Leanne. We all participated to make a cookie dough, and then enjoyed eating delicious warm cookies. 
Thanks Leanne!
