How to fold paper into bookmark:
You will need a perfect square piece of construction paper! Use your ruler to help. In this case, we used 4 by 4 inches.
1: Look at your square piece of paper in a diamond view.
2: Fold bottom to meet top, creating a large triangle.
3: Fold the pointed part of upper flap downwards so that it meets the base of the triangle, making a small triangle.
4: Fold the right corner upwards so that it meets the tip of the large triangle.
5: Repeat step 4 on the left side.
6: Tuck the right fold into the small triangle you made in step 3.
7: Repeat step 6 on the left side. Voila!
Time to make it look like a rooster!
Step One: Glue the googly eyes onto the construction paper. You could also use a marker for the eyes.
Step Two: Cut out the crown, wattle and beak and glue onto your rooster.
Step Three: Use your rooster as a bookmark! Can you think of any other farm friend bookmarks to make?
