The teacher will die-cut the materials for student use prior to the lesson.
- Die-cut the Scallop Card and Pop-Up #1 Card from green construction paper or cardstock. Fold each one to create two parts of the Card.

- Adhere the Pop-Up #1 Card to the inside of the Scallop Card, making sure that the Pop-Up tab is folded forward (Figure B).
- Die-cut the Lotus Flower from pink and yellow construction paper or cardstock. Adhere the center of the Lotus Flower to the Pop-Up tab. Adhere the bottom half of the Lotus to the Pop-Up #1 Card, making sure the top half is tucked behind the Flower center (Figure C).
- Open the Card and write the words "Good Luck" and "Long Life" on upper half.
- Write the words "Health" and "Honor" on the lower half (Figure D).
