How to create: Hold the paper vertically in front of you. Cut two lines about a quarter of the page towards the middle. These lines should be about an inch and a half from the top of the page. Divide the remaining space (not counting the title space) into four equal sections. Cut into each section from both sides about a ¼ of the page. DO NOT CUT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE PAGE. These sections will fold down so they can be opened and closed to reveal information underneath.

Directions for the content of each flap is located on the subsequent pages.
