writing letters
By jjj

Clip to ScrapBook   
I tied in writing letters to our state reports. Each student picked a state and wrote to the capital for any maps, tourist information, booklets available. Some states were very generous and all replied. We used the pictures from the tourist booklets and maps for our travel poster for each state. We did this 4 weeks in advance and most states replied within 2 weeks.

We also wrote to our mayor, governor, and the President. We received a letter and autographed picture from all. Write the PResident on his birthday also.
