Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Follow fold lines and glue tabs to assemble a paper form.

  • Use color and pattern choices to decorate the doll templates.

Teaching tips

  • Print either version at a consistent scale so the five relative sizes are preserved.

  • Provide scissors, glue and coloring materials; model folding and attaching a tab before independent assembly.

  • The pastel sheet colors the backgrounds, not all doll details, so students can still add their own colors.

Skills covered

  • Coloring and pattern decoration

  • Cutting, folding and joining paper using printed guides
