Materials:

1. Print and cut out the tree and star templates.

2. Stack the tree templates on top of one another from largest to smallest. Make sure they meet together towards the top. Staple them together using one or two staples. (The star will hide the staples.)

3. Brainstorm and plan out what to write. Beginning at the top, lift the flap and write the first step in decorating a Christmas tree. Write the next step under the second flap and so on, writing each step on a different flap. It works best to write in pencil first, and then go back over it with a black marker.

4. Once the writing is complete, it's time to decorate the tree! Don't forget to add the star on top and cut out a small, brown rectangle and glue on for the trunk.
