Description

The perfect 3-D paper sculpture lesson for grades 3-7! A student favorite!

This Elementary or Middle School 3-D art lesson will teach your students about:

  • Basic paper sculpture techniques and puppetry.
  • This easy craft project is a fun End of Year, Chinese New Year (dragon puppets) Seasonal project, or Beginning of the Year lesson to use when teaching about the Art Elements form and texture.
  • Teach this when covering the Art Elements to give students a chance to create a 3-dimensional FORM with TEXTURE.
  • Use this puppet lesson as a quick project to fill extra time at the end of the year.
  • Simple and engaging! Can be used as an extended sub-lesson in a pinch!
  • This lesson can easily be made into a cross-curricular Language Art and Drama/ Theater enriched lesson by having students perform a puppet show!
  • Technology also could be introduced if students have access to IPads to make movies of their puppet shows or stop motion animations!
