Preparation

  1. Get some large square white paper. It doesn't need to be a perfect square, so cutting B4 or A3 is fine. Red or green is OK.
  2. Make sure everyone has scissors.

Description

  • Fold the paper in half, and then half the other way.
  • Cut one corner so it's round. If you cut the correct one, when you unfold it it'll be a circle.
  • With your scissors, cut many patterns into the rectangle. Make sure not to cut entirely through any edge.
  • Unfold, and you have a snowflake.

Variations

  • Instead of a regular piece of paper, start with a narrow strip of white paper. Fold it in half four times, like a spring. Cut the corners to make them roundish. Cut patterns into the rectangle. Unfold, and you have a chain of snowflakes. Tape these together to make larger classroom decorations.
