1 hour per week. This is a flexible schedule class so each student will have the opportunity to make an origami creation every week.Class Experience
In this interactive flexible schedule class, students will learn to make a multitude of origami creations! Students will be able to learn different origami creations and share their creations with other learners by posting pictures or a video. Each week there will be 2 video lessons teaching how to make origami creations. Students will be able to complete the videos at their own pace. A benefit of flexible schedule classes for crafting projects is students are able to pause and rewatch as they desire. Students are welcome and encouraged to post pictures of their creations in the classroom, but they are not required to do this if they are uncomfortable. I will be an active participant in quickly responding to and helping students as they complete the class. Below are the projects that the students will have each week. Week 1: Boat & Dog Week 2: Butterfly & Dinosaur Week 3: Crane (bird) & Fox Week 4: Rabbit & Frog
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to fold origami creations.

Supply List
At least 8 sheets of square paper. We will be creating 8 creations, but if possible, I recommend having some extra sheets in case the learner wants to do extra or start over. We usually use 6 inch square paper, but it can be larger if you want. I do not recommend using smaller sizes because it can be more challenging.

Hello and welcome!
I'm Kristin, and I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to meet your learner(s)! I am a certified teacher with a B.S. Ed. in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. With years of experience teaching both in the classroom and online, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to my teaching.
In addition to teaching, I'm a business owner and have a background as a horseback riding instructor, which adds a unique perspective to my approach. My teaching philosophy centers around not just imparting knowledge, but inspiring a love of learning. I believe that when learners develop a genuine curiosity, they are motivated to grow, succeed, and eventually inspire others.
I create a classroom environment that is safe, inclusive, and supportive of all learners, regardless of their abilities. I'm experienced in tailoring lessons to meet individual needs and learning preferences, ensuring that every student feels confident and engaged. My teaching covers a broad range of subjects, with a particular focus on literature, life skills, nature, history, and geography.
Outside of the classroom, I have a variety of personal passions: horseback riding (both English and Western styles), reading, playing guitar, dancing, dog training, learning new languages, and exploring the world through travel. I love incorporating students' passions into their learning journey and am always open to hearing feedback, ideas, and preferences to make the learning experience even more meaningful.
What is your learner’s passion? I can’t wait to help them discover new interests and grow in their education. I look forward to meeting your learner(s) soon!
