Mr. Fawks's NEW Hobby of Paper Modeling

 

 St. Peter's Basilica Under Construction

 

During the summer as I was preparing for teaching STEM, I discovered the art of paper modeling.  This is also often referred to as card modeling.  My first paper model was of the Empire State Building.  While doing some research on Amazon for some materials for my classes, I accidentally found a paper model of the Empire State Building designed by Alan Rose.  I made the purchase and soon was cutting, folding, pasting, and constructing paper models. As you can see, it has become a new hobby for me.

 

  

 Empire State Building

 

 

Eiffel Tower 

 

 

 Capital Building and Washington Monument

 

Taj Mahal, India

 

 

St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City

 

 

Cinderella's Castle, Walt Disney World

 

 

 Brooklyn Bridge                                               Tower Bridge

 

Sydney Harbour Bridge                                          Golden Gate Bridge 

 

 At some point when you are in the school and would like to stop in to check out my paper models, please just let me know.  It is amazing to see 2 dimensional flat paper turn into something 3 dimensional.  Some of these amazing engineering achievements are brought to life for me by being able to see them close up, even if it is just folded paper.
