Origami (折り紙, from ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper") is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding, which started in the 17th century AD at the latest and was popularized outside of Japan in the mid-1900s. It has since then evolved into a modern art form. The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of paper into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami. Paper cutting and gluing is usually considered kirigami.
As every school year, we will start doing some origami in our Art lessons. 2nd year students are already familiar to this art , so your sculptures must be a little bit more complicated.1st year students will start with the popular and easy French Fries packet.
