With this set, your students (and their family) will have the opportunity to decorate their very own STAR! This family project is SO much fun and is sure to please! And just like each one of us, every star will be unique! Here's how it works: Send home the star Craft Page along with the letter I included to explain the project. The letter comes in both color and B/W, so if colored ink is an issue - never fear! I also included an EDITABLE letter option (both color and B/W.) So, if you prefer to write your own letter you absolutely can! (You will need access to PowerPoint to use the editable version.) The pre-made letter instructs families to use absolutely ANYTHING they have at home to design the blank star on the craft mat. Some ideas: Glitter, pompoms, string, bows, buttons, ribbon, stickers, scrapbooking embellishments, torn paper, puffy paint, and the list goes on! The finished products are absolutely AWESOME and so much fun to display! You will literally count the days until you get them back! The buffalo checked border on the craft page make this set extra cute and SO display worthy! I hope your class has so much fun with this activity!
