Ingredients:
- Paper
Difficulty: hard
steps
- Start with your rectangular paper, move it vertically.
- Fold the bottom half up to the top.
- Fold the bottom right corner over to the left corner and make a small pinch, just enough to crease the paper. Open it back up.
- Using the crease as a guide, fold the left and right bottom corners up and to the middle.
- Flatten the folded pieces down.
- Rotate the paper.
- Fold one layer from the bottom up along the bottom of the front flaps.
- Flip the paper over to the other side.
- Fold the bottom edge up in the same way.
- Unfold, and then fold the bottom right corner in along the crease you made.
- Repeat on the bottom left flap.
- Re-fold the bottom edge back up.
- Open the bottom of the model.
- Look at the corners. Flatten and then insert the overlapping flap on the left underneath the right section.
- Fold one layer up to the top.
- Repeat on the back.
- Open the bottom of the model.
- Pull apart the left and right flaps.
- Flatten it out, in the shape of a boat.
- Open it slightly. The triangle in the middle resembles a sail.
- Try it out on the water.
- (bonus)! Make more with different sizes and then do a race. What do you notice?
