I have to admit that I am often easily distracted from my work. I think I may have mentioned that before. This afternoon, I was having a look at Twitter while I was supposed to be finishing a resource, and noticed that @missmclachlan was tweeting pictures of some interesting-looking origami Christmas trees that her classes were making. I asked if she had a link, and she posted the link to the above YouTube video.
It's easy to make regardless of whether you understand the Spanish, and what I particularly like is that you can write things underneath each layer.
While I was walking to pick up my children from school this afternoon, it occurred to me that you could stick half a Spanish lady on the top and the tree bit becomes a Flamenco skirt. Or turn the tree bit upside down, add a semi-circle of pale yellow, pink or brown card and it becomes an ice-cream cone. Or add a face to the bottom of the tree bit and it becomes a magician's hat.
Like I said, I'm easily distracted.
