They even live where we do. To celebrate birds this week, Ms. JoAnn takes us into the wonderful world of bird watching in this fun book.

Take Flight
Mrs. Angelica shows you how to make a bird out of paper that can fly.
What you’ll need:
Construction paper
Scissors
Tape
Instructions:
1. Cut a piece of construction paper into a diamond, or even square using a play scissor (fold right or left upper corner to the opposite side and press down to fold).
2. Cut flap (place aside, do not discard).
3. Open your square or diamond and face the folded line horizontally to begin folding the bottom corner towards the line fold (repeat folding up to 4 times.)
4. Take right and left corners and create a sphere and tape/glue both ends together.
5. Remember the flap you cut off? Get it and tape on top of your sphere over the same pasted area.
6. Take flight and have fun!
