What extracurricular activities are better for children to engage in during the summer? Some parents hope that their children can study music or art in art parks such as the Cultural Palace. However, because these extracurricular activities have relatively high financial requirements, some families Parents with poor financial conditions are deterred, and many students themselves do not like these artistic activities. However, recently a retired man in Nanhu District, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province offered his paper art making skills as a summer student quality development course to children who did not have much interest in music and art.


These children did not have much concept of paper art in the past. In their understanding, paper art is simple origami and paper-cutting that they often see on the windows. This simple understanding hinders their learning of paper art to a certain extent. When Shen Ying, a retired teacher from Qinghe Middle School, promoted paper art teaching in the community, many children showed resistance. They felt that the production of paper art was too simple and could not be called art at all. But when Shen Ying After Mrs. Ying started her paper art class, she immediately attracted the attention of more than 20 children.


Teacher Shen Ying specially set up and arranged several basic introductory courses on paper art in view of the fact that many children do not have much foundation in paper art. On the one hand, it is to guide the children into the magical world of paper art; On the one hand, it also helps children make their own choices about whether to learn paper art. Teacher Shen Ying was overjoyed with the final course selection results after the basic course, because more than 20 children who participated in the course had a very strong interest in paper art, and they also brought other friends to learn paper art together. Now the paper art course is being taught happily.
