1. Using construction
paper (5 x 7 works best), fold paper in half, lengthwise,
towards you.
2. Find
the middle of the folded edge and mark with a pencil. Fold
at each side of the mark, so the corners meet and form a
triangle. There will be some paper remaining below the
folds.
3. On both the front and back, fold the
remaining paper up.
4. Holding each end of the triangle (see #4) push together so
they touch and flatten so that it becomes diamond-shaped.
5. Now fold the front in half,
upwards and do the same to the back: Once again you should
have a triangle.
6. As in step 4, hold each end of the triangle and push
together so they flatten (you will end up with a diamond shape
again).
7. On each side of the diamond there
will be a layer. Take each layer and pull down.
This creates the boat.
8. Make a mast with a toothpick - poke through the sail (don't
forget to write the name on it first) and insert in the middle
of the boat.
