Our Paper Butterfly Models

Here are the bright parts of the butterfly. The bright colours attract the other butterflies and that's how they show off to other animals. It was easy to make the model because we had to just draw one wing and then we folded the paper and then we cut it.

It looks very cool. These are models of the Painted Lady butterflies. We used thin cardboard, glue gun, oil pastels and a chopstick. We used plastercine to stick the butterflies up. The colours look like a Monarch butterfly on the top side.

Here are the undersides of the paper butterflies that we made. The colours on the underside have to be dull because on the Painted Lady butterflies are dull. The colours are grey, white, tan and black.

These models were made using thick paper, oil pastels, chopsticks and we used clay to hold the models straight up. The hardest part of making the model was cutting it up. The best part was colouring it and making it fly after we glued the chopstick on.
