Making origami ghosts is perfect for the Halloween season.

First, fold the origami paper into a triangle, then fold two sides as if you were making the tip of a paper airplane.

Next, fold the corners diagonally downward from the center toward the outside.

Lightly fold both ends inward.

Fold the top corner down, and fold the bottom corner up at a diagonal to create a tail.

Flip it over and draw a ghost face however you like.

If you hang up lots of ghosts, the classroom will be filled with a Halloween vibe.

How about enjoying Halloween together with the children?

owl

How about using an owl motif for an origami project that captures the feeling of autumn? First, fold the paper in half into a triangle and open it, then fold along the other diagonal to make creases.

Place it so that the corners are at the top, bottom, left, and right.

Fold the top corner down toward the center to about one-third of the way.

It helps if the teacher draws a guide mark.

Next, fold the bottom corner up so it meets the top corner.

Then fold the left and right corners in to align with the center line.

Slightly fold the bottom corner (the one you folded up) back down to form the owl’s beak.

After that, draw the face however you like.

Let’s make autumn fruit persimmons with the children.

First, fold an orange origami sheet into a triangle by bringing the edges to the center, then unfold it.

Do the same along the other diagonal and unfold again.

Next, fold the top corner down to the center, then fold it back up slightly so the tip sticks out a little.

Fold the left, right, and bottom corners to create a rounded persimmon shape.

Turn the paper over, and fold the protruding tip downward.

This part represents the calyx and leaf of the persimmon, so have the children color it with a green pen.

If you prepare orange origami in different shades, you can make an even greater variety of persimmons.
