3. Do this folding technique to all nine sheets. (Make sure that the folds are
moving both ways.)

 D is glued over C
 C is glued over B
 B is glued over A
5. Go back re-crease all folds
6. Fold the sheets again as follows:

 Points E and F fold toward you.
 Points G and H fold away from you.
7. Glue the portion of the organizer as shown above; glue all nine sheets.

safety and then write the criteria for each area. Pictures may also be
included with the criteria.
10. Choose a piece of cover paper that will be the back of the book.
11. Glue the ribbon to the center of this piece of paper. This will make the
closer.
12. Glue the cardstock or foam board to the back piece of paper, so that the
ribbon is hidden inside. Glue the cover piece on to the cardstock.

side. Skip the ribbon on the front.
