origami animals

I have two students from Zizu University in China helping out in my classroom once a week.  This week, I had them working with the kids on an art project for our annual Chili Cookoff.  Each child made an animal for the cookoff silent auction and one for themselves.  The kids loved the activity and the Zizu students are so much better at teaching origami than I!  Here are a couple of the animals made:

I put the photos on notecards and we will be selling sets of 20 notecards.  I hope to make some good proceeds for our natural playground set to be built this summer.
