The teacher will die-cut the materials for student use prior to the lesson.

1. Die-cut different sizes of Stars using various colors of construction or patterned paper.
2. Using a ruler, draw a pencil line from the tip of each point to the opposite side of the Star where the legs come together. 
3. Using a scoring too,l score on all the lines.
4. Mountain fold on each long line, and pinch in on the shorter folds for a valley fold. This will turn the flat Star into a 
5. 3-D Star.
6. With a Star of a different color, draw the lines from the tips to the opposite sides, and cut along the lines. The cut pieces will layer on top of a whole Star to give depth.
7. Use a hole punch to pierce the pieces or white pen, creating a patriotic look to the stars (Main Photo).
8. Use these stars to decorate a classroom for Memorial Day, Veteran’s Day, President’s Day, July Fourth or any patriotic holiday or theme.
