Origami is a great way to incorporate Chinese art into the classroom. There are numerous books that provide step-by-step instructions. The students will benefit from learning how follow directions and procedural steps while making an animal or object to share with friends and family.

Another idea I had was to incorporate Chinese art is the use of tangrams in Language arts or mathematics. The Tangram idea comes from China. The students can create their own tangram design to represent something they have learned about the Chinese culture
