Train made of colored paper. Master class on making a paper train. How to make a paper train step by step with your own hands: practical application

Today in our origami selection there is an interesting model from Emmanuel Mooser. The craft is called Mooser’s Train, or Mooser’s Train, and, by the way, consists of several parts. We will work according to patterns, and the result of your work should be a wonderful train.

To assemble an origami train, you will need one rectangular sheet of paper to form the locomotive, and two sheets of paper to assemble the cars (although here you must decide how long your train will be). The work process itself will take an hour or more.

So, to simplify the assembly process, you can simply print out the patterns proposed below, where all the fold lines are already marked. Or make your work more difficult by trying to draw the lines of mountains and valleys yourself. We will begin work by assembling the locomotive. Let's look at the pattern.

Next we switch to carriages. In the case of this model, there are two options for making carriages: you can fold the carriages individually (the first pattern below), or you can use a long rectangle, folding several carriages from it, and at the same time a locomotive (the second pattern below).

Modern phones, for all their advantages, have one significant drawback - they run out of battery quickly. This is due to the high energy consumption of the phone's system and its large screen. When the phone owner has the opportunity to charge his gadget every evening, this is not a problem. However, there are situations when access to the power grid is limited. In such a situation, an external phone battery, which is light in weight and takes up little space, will help out.

Recently, there are not so many people who want to make a train out of paper. The abundance of toys of various formats, quality and complexity has practically replaced paper toys, which, moreover, also need to be made with your own hands. However, papermaking is a very interesting activity, and also useful. Spatial thinking, fine motor skills, and logic ultimately develop. That is why in primary schools and kindergartens you can still see a variety of three-dimensional paper crafts on stands.

How to make a paper train step by step with your own hands: practical application

A paper train is a fragile thing, unstable to deformation, and it is almost impossible to adapt it to active games. But such a thing also has practical applications in the nursery. For example, a photo train, in the form of a train carrying photographs of a baby. This could be a composition with photographs from the first month of life to a year, or simply favorite and touching family photos. Such a paper craft will not only be appropriate, but also useful in a nursery - bright colors and voluminous details are very useful for the development of the baby.

To make such a train yourself, you will not need any special skills or tools. All you need for work is: a stationery knife, a glue stick and scissors. In order to hang the train on the wall, you will additionally need a suitable braid or thick thread, two paper clips and two buttons that can be driven into the wall.

Templates are printed on a color printer, the inner windows are cut out with a stationery knife. A little advice - it’s better to print not on office paper, but on drawing paper. It works well with the printer, but is denser and is not so deformed by the glue.

On the reverse side, photographs are glued into a frame. If you wish, you can further decorate the train - for example, stick buttons on top of the wheels, or add printed cute details to the photographs themselves - animals, stars, flowers - depending on the gender of the child and your imagination.

To hang the composition on the wall, you must first assemble it on a thread. On the back side of each car, glue a thread along the entire train, secure paper clips at the ends, and hang the entire structure on buttons driven into the wall.

Educational craft.

There is a reason why artistic work is included in the primary school curriculum. There they teach and show the main and most common areas of manual labor. Working with plasticine, clay, appliqués, and the like. However, the school curriculum is very limited both in hours and directly in topics. And the number of people in classes is not conducive to an individual approach to each student. Another thing is to start at home, without rushing or rushing anywhere, to independently create a train from scrap materials, and often even waste materials.

For such a train you will need:

  • white or colored cardboard - 2-3 sheets
  • chenille wire (fluffy wire is sold in office supply departments)
  • glue, scissors, ruler, pencil
  • caps from plastic bottles and 2 caps from five-liter bottles.

Progress. Cut each piece of cardboard into two equal parts - these are the future carriages. Roll each piece into a pipe and glue the joints. Glue wheels - plastic bottle caps - to each carriage. The lids must be glued in such a way that half is glued to the cardboard, and the other half is free.

Make holes at each end of the trailers, cut the wire into small pieces, roll up double-sided loops - one edge clings to the hole in the trailer, the second interlocks with the same loop of the other trailer. Thus, the cars are connected into a train.

The train must have a lead locomotive. It will differ from other trailers in that it will have not only small wheels, but also large ones, as well as a pipe. Cardboard, by the way, is replaced with toilet paper rolls, but then they need to be decorated with colored paper or stickers.

Aerobatics.

Paper modeling has existed as an applied art for a very long time. More than one generation of boys has been enthusiastically gluing together models of airplanes, ships, tanks and trains. The result of such efforts directly depends on the skills of the master and his diligence. The scheme according to which the model is assembled also plays an important role in this. There are actually a great variety of such schemes, and their complexity is designed for a wide range of ages - a child can handle some of them - this is, in fact, the layout of a box that just needs to be cut and glued correctly.

Some are more complicated - there are an order of magnitude more parts, they are numbered and labeled, and assembly requires a certain amount of care and effort.

However, the first two options cannot be compared with those patterns, or even patterns, that real professionals do. These diagrams present real models of real trains, from the first steam locomotives and locomotives to ultra-modern and high-tech models.

It would seem that an art long gone into oblivion has received a new impetus with the new capabilities of modeling programs.

Videos about which models are made of paper on a scale of 1: 87, etc., are not uncommon, and are very popular among fans of this type of creativity.

The wheels are knocking, knocking,

Our the train rushes into the distance,

And the smoke from the locomotive -

Whitish veil.

Half the sky closed from us,

And the steam locomotive “Tutu-tu,”

It buzzes, “I’ll be here before lunch.”

I'll bring the kids.

I'll arrive at the station,

Without delay, on time,

Then I'll go to the depot,

And I'll sleep there for an hour"

Making flannelgraph. Master Class. Lushnikova M.V. – teacher. I have long wanted to have a flannelgraph in my group, but I had to get plywood.

Late autumn has arrived. The earth was covered with an autumn carpet. This inspired me to create an autumn gramophone and write a poem Poem.

GOAL: development of creative musical abilities in children. OBJECTIVES: - to give an initial idea of ​​the wide possibilities of noise.

For work you will need: scissors, colored crepe paper, a glue brush, glue, black cardboard, cardboard for a template, a board, a stick.

And traffic jams! No child can remain indifferent to playing with trains: the process of linking different parts together and forming a single whole from them attracts both the little representatives of the stronger sex and future beauties.

Traditionally, trains are built from cubes or special blocks. But you can make them from the means that are currently at hand. And since a child of any age can easily make a train out of it, you can involve very young children and preschoolers in this activity.

For example, an unusual train is made from cardboard rolls from paper towels or toilet paper.

To create it, prepare in advance:

  • several cardboard rolls (the more, the longer the train will be);
  • manual hole punch in the form of pliers (on a narrow handle);
  • chenille (fluffy) multi-colored wire (or regular wire);
  • scissors;
  • decorative paper tape;
  • tin bottle caps;
  • polymer glue.

If you don’t have ready-made rolls, you can glue them together from cardboard or thick paper.

So, how to make a paper train with your own hands, a photo of which is given below.

We make two types of wagons from rolls – freight cars with an open platform and closed ones. In the first case, we cut the roll lengthwise into two halves; in the second, we leave it whole. If we make a train from straight paper sheets, then for open cars we simply cut out narrow rectangles, and for closed ones we glue them together in the form of a cylinder.

We decorate each trailer with decorative tape, gluing it in different directions, forming unusual patterns.

Then we proceed to coupling our train: in each trailer we make a hole at the edges on both sides, thread a piece into it and form a hook from it. We fasten two adjacent cars to each other using wire hooks.

All that remains is to put our train on wheels. To do this, we glue caps to the sides of each trailer - like wheels. The train is ready!

They clung to each other,
And they rushed off on a long journey,
They just left some smoke.

Behind the whistle
The brothers run in single file.

Step by step process of making a train.

Making a steam locomotive.
Stepping back 1 cm from the narrow edge of the A4 sheet, fold the sheet on both sides of the ruler. Place the ruler with its left edge on the second bend and bend it again. Let's make four bends in this way.


Having received four wide strips, cut off the excess part of the sheet along the last bend. Fold the edge of the sheet, moving 1 cm from the left edge, and then fold the sheet on the other side of the ruler.


Cut off the excess paper, leaving a 1cm margin for gluing in the middle square. Cut the edges of the square to the line, as shown in the photo.


Glue the sides of the square together. Let's shorten the main part of the locomotive cabin by cutting it to the width of a ruler on the right side of the part.


Glue the edges of the long strips together to form a column. Glue the roof to the post. The locomotive cabin is ready.


To make a window, prepare a square with a side of 2.5 cm from colored paper, and a square with a side of 1.5 cm from white paper. For the door, cut out a 7x2.5cm rectangle and a 1cm strip for the handle. For the front part of the locomotive, we will bend a square with a side of 4 or 5 cm, moving 1 cm from the edge at the top and bottom. We cut the folded parts of the sheet for gluing.


Glue the prepared square into a tube. We will glue a window and a door onto the cabin of the locomotive.


Glue a colored strip 1.5cm wide onto a 6x5cm rectangle. On the previously prepared wide pipe we glue strips 0.5 cm wide along the edges.


Glue a small pipe in the center of a large pipe. We glue the large pipe, bending the edges, to the cabin of the locomotive. Glue a square-shaped piece of paper onto the free edge of the large pipe.


Let's make a strip 3x7cm. Use scissors to twist the edges of the strip in different directions, making a figure eight.


Let's make circles for wheels with a radius of 1.5 cm and 0.7 cm.


Let's cut off the extra edges of the square on the large pipe of the steam locomotive, glue the wheels and figure eight, as shown in the photo. The locomotive is ready.


Manufacturing of a carriage.
Stepping back 1cm from the top edge, fold the sheet on both sides of the ruler. Then the sheet on both sides, placing a ruler on the right and left of the edge of the sheet. Cut the bottom of the sheet to the width of the ruler. To do this, draw a line at the bottom of the sheet. Let's make cuts as shown in the photo.


From the second similar sheet we will leave only the middle part, cutting off the extra bends, as shown in the photo.


Cut small rectangles from the sides of the first part.


Glue the side parts on the first part, as shown in the photo.


Glue the second piece to the top of the first piece.


Glue the side parts of the car to each other.


Let's make a 11x5 cm rectangle for the door and two 7x5 cm rectangles for the windows. From white paper we will make a 3x6cm rectangle for the door window and two rectangles for the carriage windows
3.5x5.5cm. Let's make a 1.5 x 9 cm strip to indicate the direction of the train.


Let's glue the door and window parts to the car.


We will make six wheels according to the previously proposed model. The diameter of the large circle is 5 cm, the small one is 3 cm. Glue the wheels along the edge of the car and in the middle. The carriage is ready.


Let's glue the car to the fastening eight on the locomotive.


Our train is ready.
