Think and say What do you know about paper cutting Where did it come from Paper-cutting started in ancient China. As early as the Han Dynasty, people used scissors to cut paper into simple shapes. By the Tang and Song Dynasties, it became popular for festivals—people stuck paper-cuts on windows or doors for good luck. What do we need for paper-cutting You just need paper, scissors or knives. Red paper is the most common. It stands for joy and good fortune, perfect for Spring Festival or weddings. Sometimes people use colored paper or even gold foil. What patterns do people cut Lucky symbols: The Chinese character “福” means happiness and is often turned upside down, because “upside down” sounds like “arrive” in Chinese—meaning “happiness arrives”. The Chinese character “喜” (joy) is often used for weddings. Nature: Flowers, birds, fish, or even pandas! Folk stories: Scenes from “The Twelve Chinese Zodiacs” or farmers working in fields. Why is paper-cutting important Today, paper-cutting isn’t just a craft—it’s a way to pass on Chinese culture. During Spring Festival, many families still stick red paper-cuts of “福” on windows. Artists also make modern paper-cuts to show new life in China. Look and say A pair of scissors, several pieces of red paper, and a piece of paper-cutting artwork. A paper-cut of flowers. A paper-cut of the Chinese charater “Fu”. A paper-cut of a bull and a plant.
