Origami Corner BookMarks

Origami Corner BookMarks

• Start with a square piece of paper.

• Turn the square so it looks like a diamond.

• Fold the bottom corner up to meet the top corner, making a triangle.

• Fold one top layer of the triangle down to the bottom point.

• Fold the left corner up to the top point.

• Fold the right corner up to the top point.

• Open the two side folds.

• Fold the left corner inward and tuck it into the pocket.

• Fold the right corner inward and tuck it into the pocket.

• Decorate your corner bookmark with faces, shapes, or fun designs.

• Slide it onto the corner of a book page.

Note for younger students:
If folding is too tricky, let them make a traditional flat paper bookmark and decorate it with craft supplies.

MATERIALS NEEDED:

• Origami paper or square paper

• Markers, crayons, or colored pencils

• Stickers or craft decorations

• Glue stick
