Step 1: Think
There are many patterns in nature. Sometimes patterns are easy to find. Sometimes they are nice to look at. For this activity, we're drawing patterns inside shapes. You can draw any design or pattern.
Step 2: Read a Story (or two)Step 3: Create
For this activity, you need paper, a black pen or colored pencils or even markers or crayons.
Watch the video below and/or watch this video. There are lots of ways to make Zendoodles!
Zendoodles are designs, or repeated patterns. Sometimes they're called Zentangles. You might draw bubbles or triangles or repeat a number of letter. Fill in a space with a repeated pattern to create a zendoodle.

Step 1: Think & Share
We use paper a lot in the makerspace.
We've painted on paper. We've collaged paper to make flags. We folded paper to make origami. This week, we invite you to "sculpt with paper." This seems strange. How can we do that? Check out the video & picture below to discover new ways to work with paper. I can't wait to see what you create! (Mrs. Colte is thinking of making a Minecraft type jungle tree using the spiral, tabs & rectangular prism sculptures. Can she do it? She can try!) Step 2: Learn from a video (or two)
Step 3: Build!
Supplies:
Paper Scissors A glue stick A piece of cardboard (a cereal box type of cardboard base to glue your sculpture onto) Look at the photo of 3D Sculpture techniques. Try different techniques to create your sculpture. You might try the same technique but do it in different colors OR in different sizes. Step 4: Share your paper sculpture!
