What is the Spring Folding Paper?
⌄
Three pages after the cover, each with a pattern to color and short fold steps. Spring Fan Paper folds back and forth into a fan taped at one end, Butterfly Paper folds corner to corner and twists with a pipe cleaner, and Bloom Paper folds into a wedge with a curve cut across the top.
Can I use the Spring Folding Paper at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 3rd Grade to 5th Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many 3rd Grade to 5th Grade spring resources are there?
⌄
3 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 41 Spring resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Spring activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are spring resources for?
⌄
These are written for 3rd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 8-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these spring resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 3rd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
