Paper Snake to Make
What to do:
- Starting with one sheet of paper, carefully tear a strip that is about one inch wide down one side of the paper.
- At the corner, carefully go around so that you continue to tear across the next side, doing the same at each corner and down each side until you run out of paper completely. You are “peeling” a strip of paper like you might peel the rind from an orange, all in one strip.
- Use one end as the snake’s head, adding features.
- The other end can be the snake’s tail. Measure to see how long the snake is, and make others from other sizes of paper.
