Once Upon A Time!

Help me give my students fairy tale books and materials to create their own fairy tale plays.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Horgan's classroom raised $322

My Project

The purpose of this project is to expand the fairy tales collection in our class library. The addition of diverse fairy tales to our library collection will enrich the reading experience for students.

Expanding the fairy tales collection in our library aligns with our school's commitment to promoting literacy, cultural awareness, and creativity among students.

Fairy tales have a timeless appeal and serve as valuable resources for both recreational reading and academic enrichment. By investing in this collection, we can provide students with access to stories that inspire, educate, and entertain.

The card stock and popsicle sticks will be used for creating our own fairy tale stories and puppets.
