Good afternoon, dear guests of my page. I suggest you watch another of my master - a class for making a toy out of paper. This toy is easy to make for middle and senior preschool children.

Target: mastering the technique of making paper toys.

Tasks:

Strengthen the ability to work with paper, scissors;

Development of fine motor skills, constructive skills and abilities, creativity and imagination;

To form a benevolent attitude towards each other, a desire to help;

To cultivate a kind, caring attitude towards animals.

Step-by-step instruction.

For work we need a white and colored paper, pencil, scissors, blank stencils, glue, simple curly scissors can. The paper should be heavy.

Take a sheet of white paper or a sheet of paper of a different color and fold it in half.


We proceed to the design of the torso. To do this, take and circle the stencil on a sheet of paper folded in half. The fold of the paper should be on top. After that we cut out the silhouette of a swan.


We make cuts as in the photo. For middle-aged children, you can draw lines.



We bend the back of the workpiece inward and bring it to the base of the neck. We fix it with glue. We are waiting for it to dry. For convenience, you can fasten with paper clips.


At the end of the work, you get such a swan. This paper toy can also be used as a gift.


Thank you all for your attention.

We made such wonderful swans together with the kids, having only paper, gouache scissors and glue at hand. Swans can also be white.

Dear colleagues! I would like to congratulate you on the past holidays and present to your attention a master class on making.

The swan is a symbol of purity, loyalty, perfection and wisdom. These noble birds are photographed, painted, molded. Origami swans look interesting. But many are afraid to work with paper, as they consider it a fragile material. However, this is a big misconception.

Today you will learn how to make a paper swan.

Simple origami



It will take a square sheet of paper and a little time to make such a swan.

What to do:


Modular origami

It is very colorful and beautiful craft... All parts are fixed by hand, without the use of glue and paper clips. But there is one drawback. This is a very painstaking and time-consuming job. First you need to make the modules themselves. Their number may vary. Depending on the size of the swan. Also, each layer can be made in a different color. In general, this is a matter of fantasy. For such a craft, good office paper is suitable.

Depending on the size of the craft, you can make blanks:

Now we add these rectangles to modules.




What to do:

If you do everything right, then you will have a module like this.

Add the volumetric swan

What do you need:

  1. For a pure white swan, 459 modules: 1 red and 458 white.
  2. For a multi-colored swan 459 modules, but already in other colors: 1 red, 136 pink, 90 orange, 60 yellow, 78 green, 39 blue, 36 blue and 19 purple.

What to do:

  1. 3 particles Pink colour arrange as shown below.

  2. We insert one side from each module into the pockets of the third.

  3. Take two more modules and attach them in the same way to the previous structure.

  4. We repeat similar actions until a circle is formed.

    Important! Hold the structure. Since before the formation of a circle, it can crumble.

  5. We put on the next row in a checkerboard pattern. It will be orange in color.

  6. Two more rows are recruited in the same way.

  7. The next move is very difficult. It is necessary to turn the structure up. If you do everything right, then you get this form.


  8. We repeat all the same actions. Only now the modules are put on not from the side, but from above. The next row is yellow.

  9. The next row will be spaced. They are needed to create the neck and wings. Remove two modules (neck) and on either side of them make two rows, which will consist of 12 yellow particles.

    Important! Previously, each row consisted of 30 modules. After creating a gap, there will be 24 particles in the row.

  10. Now each next row needs to be reduced by one particle. If done correctly, then the 8th row will consist of 22 modules. 9 - out of 20, 10 - out of 18. And you get this design.

  11. Row 11 is blue and consists of 16 particles. 12 - out of 14.

  12. 13 row - from 12 particles of blue color... 14 - out of 10.15 - out of 8 pcs.

  13. 16 purple row of 6 pieces. 17 - from 4. 18 row of 2 particles. After that, the wings are finished.

  14. Now we make the tail. It consists of 12 green particles and 3 blue ones. It is done in the same way as the wings. Each subsequent row minus 1 piece.

  15. Now the neck is being created. The particles are connected in a different way. Each subsequent module is attached with two corners to the pockets of the previous one.

Working with paper allows you to develop fine motor skills hands, which has a beneficial effect on the overall development of the child. You can develop fine motor skills by making various birds and animals. It also allows you to explore the diversity of the animal world with your child. One of the most beautiful and graceful birds is the swan. So, how to make a paper swan step by step?

One of the most beautiful paper swans is the one made from modules. To create this craft, you will need to make a large number of triangular modules.

The first step is to make the modules:

  1. A4 sheet is divided into 32 equal parts. To do this, its length is divided into 8 parts, width - by 4.
  2. Each resulting rectangle is folded in half along its long side.
  3. The elongated rectangle is then folded in half, connecting the two short pieces to each other.
  4. The previous step is turned back, and the halves of the upper side, consisting of two layers, are applied to the resulting midline.
  5. The workpiece is turned over. The outer corners of the lower rectangles are folded. And then the beveled rectangular pieces are folded to the base triangular element.
  6. The workpiece is folded in half.

How to assemble a swan from modules?

Assembling a swan by technology modular origami- the matter is quite simple, but it requires concentration of attention, since an error in counting can lead to the formation of a figure curve.

To work you will need:

  • 458 modules of white color;
  • 1 red module.

Assembling a swan using modular origami technology is quite simple

Step-by-step actions:

  1. Each row of a swan's body consists of 30 elements. First of all, two rows are assembled at the same time: the left pocket of the upper element is put on the right acute corner of the lower triangle. Thus, all 60 elements of the first 2 rows are collected. With the help of the last module, the chain is closed in a ring.
  2. Next, 3-5 rows are recruited in turn.
  3. The resulting workpiece is turned inside out. Further, in a similar way, another 1 row is built.
  4. In the 7th row, the wings begin. 2 adjacent corners are left for the head. On both sides of them, 12 elements are attached. Thus, the 7th row forms a total of 24 elements.
  5. In each subsequent row of wings, it is necessary to reduce the number of elements used by 1 part. For example, in the 10th row, only 9 elements will form 1 wing. From the 11th row, 2 elements are reduced. Working according to this scheme, it is necessary to make up the 18th row of 1 element for each wing.
  6. Gently bend the wings with your fingers, giving them a graceful concave shape.
  7. A tail is made between the wings at the back. The first tail row consists of 5 elements. Each row should be reduced by 1 piece until a sharp tip is formed.
  8. Then the neck is performed. To do this, 1 module is attached to the remaining 2 corners, 2 elements are attached to it, followed by 1 again. This assembly scheme is repeated until all the white modules run out. The neck should be crowned with a red module - the beak.
  9. The neck is given a curved shape. Eyes are attached to the head.

Such a swan can also be made in color. For this white paper should be replaced with the one that is most suitable in shade to the desired goal. One of the spectacular design options for such a figurine is the assembly of a rainbow bird.

Large paper swan: step-by-step instructions

A large swan can be made with modular origami.

The assembly of such a model has some features:

  1. The assembly of the bird is carried out according to a similar instruction, however, the rectangles prepared for the formation of the modules must be bigger size... So, A4 sheet should be divided not into 32 parts, but into 8. As a result, the modules will be 4 times larger in size.
  2. Also, to assemble a large swan, you will need to use PVA glue. This should be done to strengthen the structure.
  3. Each row of the bird's body should have a double or triple the number of parts.

A large swan can be made with modular origami

If you want to make a large rainbow swan, you need to use paper of similar tones, since the contrast on large details will be very striking.

How to make a paper swan using origami?

In order to make a swan using the origami technique, you only need a square of white paper.

We make the bird in stages:

  1. The square is folded into a basic triangle shape and then returned to its original state.
  2. Adjacent corners should be folded towards the center along a diagonal fold.
  3. Next, it is necessary to bend the sides of the formed triangle by 1/3.
  4. The resulting angle is folded by more than 50%. Then a small angle is folded back - to form a swan's head.
  5. The workpiece is bent in half, the tail is bent, the wings are spread.

You can also make a swan out of paper using cutting.

This will require:

  • A4 sheet;
  • glue;
  • clamp;
  • scissors.

Such figures look very impressive in quality christmas decoration

How to do:

  1. A4 sheet is folded in half lengthwise. A template is drawn on the sheet.
  2. Next, using scissors, the template is cut out. Through cuts are made on parallel oblique lines.
  3. The tail is turned inside out and glued to the neck.
  4. In order not to hold the figurine until the glue dries, you can fix it with a clip.
  5. The beak is painted red, an eye is drawn on the head.

Such figures look very impressive as a New Year's decoration for a kindergarten or school.

Big swan from children's hands

An excellent option for decorating a group in kindergarten is the creation of a large paper swan from the prints of children's handprints. All you need is paper and glue.

How to do:

  1. The first step is to cut out the base of a swan with an oval small body, spread wings, a graceful neck and head.
  2. Next, each child traces their palms on a sheet of paper, and then cuts out the resulting shape.
  3. Swan wings are decorated with carved palms, like feathers, directing the fingers away from the body of the bird. The prints should be overlapped, starting from the edge of the wings. In the narrowest part of the wing, 1 handle should be placed, in the second row - two, in the third - three. When the wing acquires a more uniform structure, the number of palms should be left unchanged, placing each rad in a checkerboard pattern with respect to the previous one.
  4. Then the resulting figure is decorated with a beak and eyes.

In this work, you should not use a large amount of glue, as it can deform the main figure and lead to its unnatural bends.

Paper crafts are objects that every child puts their soul into. By creating them, he creatively develops, and also forms such necessary qualities as perseverance, attention. At the first stages of teaching a child to work with paper, he needs to be offered to carry out basic models of figures. Gradually, with the receipt of a certain amount of experience with this material, the child will improve them, finding their own ways of decorating and creating new forms.

Origami is one of the fun creative activities that does not require a lot of tools and materials. As a result, it is low-cost. All you need to create paper masterpieces is to be careful and patient. Today we will learn how to make origami a swan in two ways: simple model using one sheet of paper and modular origami.

Materials and tools

As already mentioned at the very beginning, origami does not require the preparation of special materials for creativity, all we need is:

  • paper (standard A4 paper is perfect - it folds easily and holds its shape);
  • scissors;
  • skillful hands and a little patience.

We will prepare the workplace to make it easier to create. You can start.

For mastering the origami technique, a paper swan is best suited. Probably everyone who is fond of this type of creativity started with just such a swan. And not in vain, because despite the simplicity of execution, the swan looks very cute.


I offer you a simple photo instruction on how to make a swan using the origami technique:

  1. We take a square sheet of paper (you can take ready-made stickers that are sold in any stationery store) and fold it diagonally.
  2. We straighten the sheet, then to the drawn diagonal, fold the edges to make a corner.
  3. Turn over and repeat the procedure, the corner becomes sharper.
  4. Divide in half by connecting the top and bottom corners.
  5. We make the swan's head, bending a smaller angle.
  6. We bend the workpiece in half.
  7. Move the part of the paper, which is the head of the swan, as shown in the photo.
  8. We straighten the folds so that the swan can be in an upright position.
  9. Our swan is ready.

Our warm-up has come to an end, now let's get down to a more difficult task. The next step is to create a modular origami.

The swan in this design looks just great. At first glance, the design seems very complicated, but soon you will find out how easy it is to create beautiful models using the origami technique. It is enough just to get acquainted with step by step models.

There are many options for how to make a paper swan. Origami allows you to give products new lines using imagination and certain skills.

We make modules

The main thing to learn is to compose a module (the parts that make up the whole structure).

It is done as follows:

  1. To obtain pieces of paper of the desired size, divide a standard A4 sheet into 16 equal parts.
  2. From the blanks, we need to add the modules. The number of components depends on the size of the future model.
  3. We put the rectangular blank horizontally and fold it in half.
  4. We do the same vertically.
  5. Bend the edges to the bend.
  6. From the reverse side, it looks like this.
  7. We bend the corners up, leaving a small gap.
  8. Raise the edges up, as shown in the photo.
  9. Fold the module vertically.
  10. In finished form, it looks like this:

It is with the help of such parts that you can assemble a model of any animal or bird, for this you just need to strictly follow the assembly scheme.

Collecting the Swan

We turn to the main part of making crafts - assembling modules into a conceived craft. Consider two options for how to make a swan: from white and colored modules.

First option:

  1. We take three modules and connect them, as shown in the photo:



  1. We attach the following two modules to the structure:


This design is quite fragile, so you should collect the first three rows without pausing. Otherwise, your structure may fall apart.

  1. With the third row, we make the structure more stable:




  1. After completing the third row, you should get the following construction:


The first row of this design consists of 30 modules, then ascending.

  1. We continue the construction, building the fourth and fifth rows. This is done according to the same principle as the previous ones.


  1. We twist the structure slightly, holding it with two fingers, so as not to destroy it:


You should get the following construction:


  1. We make the sixth row without changing the sequence of actions.
  2. Moving on to the next row, you will mark the position of the neck and tail. We put on 12 modules as usual, then skip two (leaving room for the neck) and put on the next 12 modules. The remaining space between them will be taken by the tail. And 12 modules on both sides give rise to the swan's wings.


  1. Starting from the ninth row, each wing will decrease by one element.


  1. We continue to shrink the wings until they are crowned with one module:


  1. We pass to the tail. It is also done, decreasing by one module with each row.


  1. The final stage is drawing up the neck and head. We need 19 white and one red blank. In the red module we glue the corners to get the beak. In order to assemble the neck, we proceed as shown in the picture, inserting the modules into each other:


  1. Create a natural curve for the swan neck as you go:


  1. It remains only to insert the finished neck into place. The module swan is ready!

The second option repeats the execution of the first, but is made of corners different color... This version of the execution of the swan in the modular origami technique is called "rainbow". To make a rainbow model, we need modules different colors... We will not describe the actions in detail this time, since their order is no different from the above.


Based on the main principles of modeling in this technique, you can build models of different shapes and colors. Combine similar colors, or play with contrast. Models look great in black and white, you can also arrange smooth transition according to the ombre principle - from a light shade to a darker one, or vice versa.

Origami belongs to one of the most ancient oriental directions, which acquired new life... Continuous improvement allows you to significantly expand the expressive possibilities of art to create a masterpiece from a simple sheet of paper.

One of the most common images for incarnation is a swan. This bird has become a symbol of purity, loyalty and perfection. And it is worth considering how to correctly origami a swan.


Swan outline in classic style

To make a simple origami swan for beginners in a traditional style, you need a square sheet of paper. Then you need to perform a number of simple steps:

  • first, the sheet must be folded diagonally;
  • after it must be deployed;
  • the result of these actions will be a straight line;
  • now you need to wrap the bottom edges parallel to the diagonal;
  • at the next stage, you need to turn the workpiece over and repeat the previous operation;
  • the body and tail of the swan are ready;
  • now you need to make a transverse fold to get the bird's neck;
  • bending a smaller angle again, we get the head of a swan;
  • it remains to bend the work in half again and slightly correct the head.

In order for the figure to be stable, you will need to straighten some of the folds a little. And the beautiful origami swan is ready.


Manufacturing modules

Diagrams and instructions on how to make origami from modules look a little more complicated. However, this method allows you to create more complex shapes that combine multiple colors. Therefore, it makes sense to master this technique.

First of all, you need to learn how to make blanks for modules. A4 office paper will suffice as a material. The size of the blanks will depend on the size of the craft. For a figure of small modules, A4 sheet will need to be divided into 32 rectangles measuring 3.7x5.3 cm.

To obtain larger elements, you will need to divide the sheet into 16 rectangles with a format of 5.3x7.4 cm.Each of them needs to be shaped using the following steps:

  • first you need to bend the workpiece in half horizontally;
  • the next fold is required vertically;
  • now you need to unbend the rectangle to the previous position;
  • and the edges must be folded towards the vertical fold;
  • turning the workpiece over, it is necessary to bend the protruding corners to obtain a small gap;
  • the edges must be lifted and folded vertically.

Having understood the scheme for making the module, you can master the swan origami master class. To obtain a standard figure, 459 modules are required.

For a one-color craft, they can all be made of white paper, diluting the composition with one red element. For a multi-colored bird, modules of all colors of the rainbow are required.

Making a volumetric swan

The complexity of this work lies in the connection of the elements without the use of any fixing composition. You can make a modular origami swan in several stages. First, the first 3 blanks are taken. They need to be folded so that on one side of the two modules are in the pocket of the third. 2 more elements are attached to the resulting structure by the same method.


The operation is repeated until the circle is closed. In the process of work, it is worth holding on to the already folded elements so that the craft does not fall apart.

The next row of modules is put on over the previous one in a checkerboard pattern. As a result, the resulting circle will become wider. And thus you need to make 2 more circles.

Unscrew the resulting structure into reverse side will be the most difficult but necessary part of the job. After that, the attachment of new modules will be performed from the top. After completing another circle, the body of the swan will be ready.

Now you have to perform rows at intervals. The parts to be filled will gradually take on the shape of wings, and the head and tail will be in the resulting voids.

The rows, representing the wings, are performed with a decrease in element on both sides at each level until their number is reduced to two. The tail is done in a similar way.


To complete the neck, it is necessary to put the corners of each module into the pocket of the previous one. You need to start with a red element that will represent the bird's beak.

In the course of work, it is worth immediately forming the desired bend of the neck. To fix the resulting structure on the body, you will need 2 needles.

Looking at the photo of the origami swan, you can understand that in order to complete the work, it remains to complete the stand. It consists of two circles, the principle of which is similar to the swan's neck. First, the resulting parts need to be glued together, and then attach the finished figure to them.

To summarize: the possibilities of origami technique allow you to perform shapes of any degree of complexity. This requires desire, time and perseverance. The result will be original craft able to decorate the house. Or become a gift to a close friend.
