TURTLE

Print out the turtle graphic on regular printer paper and cut out the

pattern. Don’t use paper that is too thick; it will be hard to fold.

Use the dotted lines on the graphic and the instructions to help

guide you with the folds.

This pattern requires scissors,

please ask your parent for help.

1. The graphic side should be facing down. Fold

the turtle pattern in half (as shown) so that

the fold runs along the dotted line on the graphic side.

2. The side of the triangle that does not display

the turtle's eyes should be facing you. Fold in half

(along the dotted line in the above image) and unfold.

3. Using the dotted lines on the graphic

as a guide, fold the left and right corners

to the center.

4. Fold the right and left top layer

corners upwards to meet at the top corner.

5. Fold the left and right corners on the top layer

(as shown) outwards.

6. Cut the top layer along

the red dotted lines.

7. Fold the bottom right and left corners

outwards like in step 5.

8. Fold the outer right and left corners

inwards so that they meet in the middle.
