How to make a paper
transforming ninja star
By Lewis, 5/6C
What you need: You need 8 sheets of square paper
altogether. 4 one colour and another 4 a different
colour.
 Firstly, fold a piece of paper in half and then open it back to
its original form. Now you have a crease in the middle of
your paper.
 Secondly, fold the two top corners in to the
middle, shaping a plane form, like this.
 Here come’s the tricky part. Thirdly, fold the bottom middle
towards a corner of the plane form. Then fold the other
corner towards the same crease.

corner
Fourthly, fold all the side’s in firmly, but not too
tight otherwise the paper might tear.
 Now you have a diamond shape. After that your going to have
to make this same diamond shape 8 times, using the step’s I
have given you with your other 7 square pieces of paper
When you have finished all the diamond shaped pieces
connect each flap to the other flaps like this. Now fold both of
the two corner flaps inside the bigger flap and do the same
concept with all the other diamond shape’s until you reach the
last one.
Now with the last flap, carefully place the
middle flap between the two other flaps and
then fold it in with the hooks.

There, now you have made your transforming ninja star. But it’s not
transforming ninja star, when you don’t know how to transform it.
So to transform your ninja star, you must push each opposite side of
your ninja towards the centre of the ninja star but carefully .
If you want to untransform your ninja star, pull every opposite
side apart, but don’t pull it too far apart otherwise the
transforming ninja star might break apart.
Anyway, now you have completed and finished your
transforming ninja star.
