Every year, millions of Asian families come together to celebrate the first new moon in the sky. Now your students can learn and love creating these beautiful Pagoda buildings. Included in this pdf are step by step directions using simple materials such as construction paper and markers, informative text, and colorful illustrations.

Additional directions show adding lanterns and gardens to your background for a festive celebration.
