What it looks like when it's done!
1. The cards do not need to be colored, but have students trace over the letter and diamonds of the red card so that it looks like a card that belongs in the diamond suit.
2. Color the card holder. Keep it in reds, blacks, and grays.
3. Cut out the cards and the card holder.
4. Write the explanations for Answer, Cite, Explain on the cards. See “Notes for Writing on Cards.”
5. You will only need to glue the side edges and bottom of the card holder/pocket. Do NOT put any glue in the middle or along any of the rounded portion.
6. Once the glue has dried, store the cards in the pocket.
