Origami for Mother's Day

Submitted by andrea.pond on

Thursday, Ms. Tippetts seventh grade English students combined two Japanese art forms to create mementos for Mother's Day. Students first wrote a narrative Haiku on a piece of paper and folded that into origami. Surprisingly, writing the Haiku was much easier than folding a paper crane or 8-petal flower! 

Thanks to all the fantastic mothers that support us!
