Art Class, Pop-Ups 101! Bring Paper to Life: Make Pop-Up Cards and Books

In this class, students will learn basic pop-up techniques and how to combine them to create creative cards and books out of heavyweight paper (construction paper or cardstock)! Students will follow along step-by-step with me to learn how to fold, cut, and put together the basic box and the basic beak folds, and combine multiple pop-up cards into a book of pop-ups. 

The class order is:
Day 1: Basic Box - learn and practice one of the foundations of pop-ups
Day 2: Basic Beak - learn and practice another foundational pop-up fold
Day 3: Combining beaks & boxes, & how to connect them into a book

PLEASE NOTE: To be successful in this class, kids need heavyweight paper (construction paper or cardstock!), and they need to be able to cut and fold well. I'll review effective techniques during the class to help with this and any future projects.

I'll do live demonstrations with the camera focused on my hands so participants can follow along with me, step-by-step, as we learn the techniques! However, it's not iterative - I don't make them make the same exact thing I do. I teach them the techniques, and then they use those techniques to make whatever they like! I ask students to share as we go, but never insist.

At the end of their three days with me, students will have a handful of pop-up cards, and a pop-up book. My goal is that they can leave the class able to teach someone else how to create these. 

**SUPPLIES NEEDED: You will need to have certain supplies available for this class - please check the "Learner Supply List" section of the listing! Students will need heavier-weight paper for this class - that's very important! At least construction paper, or cardstock - not printer or notebook paper.

OUTSCHOOL/CLASS RULES OF NOTE:
1) Have a working webcam! I must see students on camera at least at the beginning of class, and if possible, I prefer that cameras stay on as I can't help kids effectively if I can't see their artwork. Please make sure that your webcam is functioning before entering the classroom.
2) Although siblings are welcome to share computers, all learners attending the class need to be individually enrolled.
3) Parents may stay nearby, but they must stay offscreen during class.
