Help me give my students hats, stickers, and puppets for a monster party!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Melissa's classroom raised $170

My Project

Next year, I want to have some special theme days to liven the year up and to give students something to look forward to! I would love to have a monster party on Halloween! This party will be fun for everyone, including students who don’t celebrate Halloween. I would love for us to be able to wear monster hats, create our own monsters using stickers, and make monster paper bag puppets. I would love to create monster goody bags filled with monster stickers and finger puppets.

Your donation will provide my students with the materials they need for a memorable monster party!
