Wild Animals

Supplies Used: Adhesive, Cardstock or construction paper, Crayons, markers or pens, Pencil, Scissors

The teacher will die-cut the materials for student use prior to the lesson.

1. Die-cut the Lion, 3-D shape from two shades of yellow cardstock or construction paper.
2. With a pencil, draw a line to cut for paper layering (Figure A). Crayons, markers or pens can also be used to embellish the Lion (Figure B).
3. Align the front and back Lion bodies, and fold at the top so that all four feet touch a surface at the same time.
4. Fold both tabs in toward the middle, and slide the slits on the tabs together (Figure C). This will allow the animal to stand (Figure D).
5. Die-cut the Jungle Leaves shapes and Bare Tree shape from assorted colors of paper, and embellish the shapes with crayons, markers or pens.
6. Adhere the tree and leaves to a box to make a diorama (Main Photo).
