Welcome to the
Teachers' Corner! |
We are delighted to launch the Teachers' Corner. It is a unique place where we can share our experiences of bringing origami to the classroom. We'll incorporate various subjects ranging from math, language arts, social studies and visual art as well as addressing various learning standards. Origami benefits are numerous.
We will introduce a new base and diagram one or more models that start using this base. Familiarity with these is most beneficial.
We hope you find the Teachers' Corner an invaluable resource for bringing origami to your classroom. If you have any suggestions, comments or questions, please feel to contact us! teachers@creased.com |
