Simple, interesting and fun to make crafts from cones. This is because the most ordinary cone can turn into any toy, animal, bird, funny object. By attaching various parts to the cone, as well as fastening the cones together, you can create a whole collection of crafts, like toys, souvenirs and quite useful items.

To create a cone, draw a circle with a compass and divide it into 4 parts. Then all these sectors are cut, and a cone is rolled up from the resulting quarters. Such a cone will be narrow, but if you cut off more than a quarter of a circle, the cone itself will turn out wider.

What can be crafts from cones?

Dog

Twist a half circle of brown paper into a cone - the torso is ready. Add dog ears, muzzle, paws and eyes and you get a cute dog, and most importantly - very easy to create.

Elephant

The base, that is, the body of an elephant, is a gray thin cone from the fourth part of the circle. Plus a head with large ears, smoothly flowing into the trunk, legs and tail. Everything is simple and fast, especially since a head template is attached to help.

Cylinder toys: Master Class.

A master class on making toys from cylinders is given by Galina Demikhova, a regular reader of the Rodnaya Path website and grandmother of two granddaughters (3 years old) and grandson (10 years old).

Galina writes: “Thank you, Asya, this is my first time participating in the competition. Very interesting for me and the kids.

All toys are made of cylinders - toilet paper tubes.

How to make Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden from a cylinder - toilet paper tubes

for crafts New Year's toys I took:

- toilet paper tubes

- colored paper for the wings and nose of Santa Claus,

— white paper for face,

- cotton pads for a beard, mustache, snow maiden bangs, coat edges.

For crafts of the Snow Maiden and Santa Claus, you need to take cylinders - tubules from toilet paper.

Step 1. From one end of this cylinder, bend the edges to the middle - you will get, as it were, two triangular ears.

From the bottom of the tube, also fold the edges of the cylinder to the middle, but already so that the ears look the other way. Get legs.

"Ears" for a hat are best sewn with threads, they do not stick to glue.

Step 2. When the ears are sewn, paint the blank. This is what sewn blanks for toys look like.

Step 3. Making a face. For the face, take a semicircle (look to fit your workpiece and glue). It turned out to be a face.

Glue a semicircle of a cotton pad around the face, cut along the edge - this is a beard.

Mustaches can also be cut from a cotton pad to your taste - large or small.

And for the Snow Maiden, cut out the hair as well.

We glue everything.

We make a nose from a circle of paper.

Around the cylinder - where the hat ends, that is, above the face - glue a strip of either cotton, or from a cotton pad. And you can decorate with paints - put dots, or stick sequins.

Don't forget to tie the eyelet to the hat when you sew the "ears" at the top. You can see it all in the picture.

How to make a crow toy from a toilet paper cylinder:

The crow is done in the same way, only I bent all 4 sides at the top and sewed 4 “ears” together, I got an almost round head.

Cut out the tail, beak and wings. And stick them on the toy."

What can kids do in making this craft: Granddaughter (three years old) painted and glued cotton strips from cotton pads- these are decorations for fur coats and hats, the granddaughter made incisions. And the grandson of 10 years pasted sequin decorations. Under the guidance of an adult, you can make many of these toys. Last year we made an owl and made all the characters for the fairy tale. A sheep, a hare and a snowman were sculpted from salt dough.

Happy New Year everyone!

What can we already do?

What difficulty will you experience while doing the work?

What do you think we have to do today?

Let's go back to the example

Look, the connection of the legs, head, neck is movable, which allows you to change their position and in general appearance toys

All products are made on the basis of a cylinder and a cone

Make blanks based on cylinders and cones. Then connect them together and attach the finishing details

We can perform cone and cylinder reamers. We learned this in the lessons of visual geometry

When fastening parts together. You need to think: whether to glue the parts. Whether with the help of threads to connect

We will learn how to design toys based on cylinders and cones and fasten the parts together

Regulatory UUD

BUILDING A PROJECT TO EXIT THE DIFFICULT

Discovery of Practical Skill

Is there anyone among you who guessed how the work would be done

I suggest you talk about it in groups

Review the craft and discuss how it was received / Group work.

- For a cone, you need to take half a circle. The size of the circle is determined by the size of the future product. The cones are folded in such a way that at the top you get either an acute angle, or an obtuse, or a right angle, depending on the product.

For a cylinder, a rectangle is drawn based on the size of the future product.

Communicative UUD

1. We form the ability to listen and understand others.

2. We form the ability to build a speech statement in accordance with the tasks.

3. We form the ability to formulate our thoughts orally.

Planning for the upcoming practical work(building the sequence of product manufacturing)

Imagine what your product will look like. -What craft will you take as a sample?

Is it possible to make a sketch of a craft on your own?

What material will you make your toy from?

Here are parts of the instruction card.

And what is it? What is it for?

Try creating an instruction sheet for parts based on a cylinder

If you assembled it correctly, then what will you get?

We form the ability to predict the upcoming work (draw up a plan), we form the ability to carry out cognitive and personal reflection.

Regulatory UUD

We form the ability to express our assumption, the ability to evaluate learning activities in accordance with the task.

Self-practical work

When working with which tool you need to be careful?

How to properly place tools and materials on the desktop so that they do not interfere with you and your comrades?

Remember that you are working in groups, so distribute the work so that all members of your group are involved.

You need to carefully work with scissors and a needle, as you can get hurt.

Students organize their jobs, distribute “roles” in the group: someone makes blanks for cones, someone for cylinders, someone traces shapes for decoration according to the template, someone cuts out, someone decorates.
