Origami Christmas Tree Craft
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Origami Christmas Tree Craft" is written for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade (Ages 7-11). It also works a grade below or above: younger children can use it with an adult reading it aloud, and older ones as a quick refresher.
Origami Christmas tree craft for 2nd to 5th grade: cut out a patterned square and follow six folding steps to make a paper tree. Part of our Christmas holiday activities collection.
How do I use this resource?
Model each fold under a document camera. Try two sizes to make a little forest on a holiday card.
What students will practice
- Gives 2nd grade students seasonal counting, vocabulary, and fine-motor activities themed around Christmas and Easter.
- Builds early counting and matching skills alongside coloring and cutting practice that strengthens pencil control.
- Works as low-pressure seasonal filler for the days around a holiday break, not core skill instruction.

What is the Origami Christmas Tree Craft?
⌄
A one-page guide with a patterned square to cut out and six steps: cut, fold corner to corner, fold the sides into a kite, turn it over, fold up the trunk and glue it onto a card. It also shows the finished tree and a tip to color the square first.
Can I use the Origami Christmas Tree Craft at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many 2nd Grade to 5th Grade Christmas resources are there?
⌄
18 printable resources, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Christmas resources for?
⌄
These are written for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 7-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Christmas resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 2nd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
