Assessment
Assessments will be mostly formative in the form of informal observation and check-ins throughout the class. These will be for the purpose of making sure each student is following along appropriately so the teacher can go back and repeat steps if necessary and go at each learner's desired pace.

Class Experience

This class is an entirely introductory course for learning the Japanese art of folding paper: origami. In this one-time course, students will learning two basic introductory origami patterns that cover the different areas of origami like practical origami and aesthetic origami. Students will follow along with the instructor as they create origami patterns together! The class will be as interactive as the students need it to be and will flow at their own pace depending on their level of comfortability with each fold. Learners can stop instruction at any time to have a fold re-demonstrated for them until they are able to create the patterns!

**Note: NO background knowledge in origami is required to take this course! Advanced origami students are more than welcome to take this course as well, but it is meant to be structured as an introductory course.**
