We made some multiplication (3 times tables) Christmas trees on the weekend, by adding equal groups of star stickers to the branches. The basic template, we printed from a free file in our TpT store.
We painted our trees using watercolors.
And added simple foil star stickers.
Alternatively you can simply use green paper circles for this craft.
Students can learn to fold a paper circle in half and half again to explore fractions as they prepare their tree.

These tree also look fabulous prepared from paper plates, paper doilies and a variety of other craft and fancy papers. Adorn with stickers, paint spots or crayon and top with a foil star!
A few years ago (make that 6 - eek) we made these trees using some paper doilies too!
This craft goes perfectly with one of our favorite Christmas stories (Amazon Affiliate Link):
