Happy New Year 2022! Woohoo! To celebrate the new year we are going to explore some of the Asian New Year's Celebration Traditions. We will create a project mash-up with the Japanese art of Notan and the Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama! We will use more shapes, symmetry, and patterns to draw and build a Pop-Up Book. Scroll down for the lesson details.

Create a a Pop-Up Book about Native Florida Species
Materials
· Multi-Colored Papers
· Colored Pencils
· Scissors
· Ruler
· Glue Stick
· Clear Tape
Steps
1-Take the 20 cm x 20 cm pieces of paper and fold both in half neatly and
accurately.
2- On one of the sheets, mark two points: 5 cm up and 5 cm down from the
center of the fold.
3 - On the same sheet, mark two more points: 5 cm right and 5 cm left
of the center of the fold.
4 - Draw diagonal lines connecting all four points.
5 - Fold the paper together and use scissors to cut along the center of the diamond.
6 - Cut from the center point out toward the point where the diagonal lines connect.
7 - Use the back of the scissors to score the marked lines, and fold along the scored lines.
When the finished work is opened, the mouth will open.
8 - Glue a sheet with the mouth to the other sheet of paper.
Avoid gluing the mouth to be sure it will pop open.
