Literacy Bag Topic - Mail inventory
By Sandy

Clip to ScrapBook   
I am also working on literacy bags this summer. I have one that I'm starting on right now - its called Mail Inventory. I got this idea from the IL reading conference and I am adapting it for second grade. I'm using the
books Dear Mrs. LaRue, Detective LaRue, and First Year Letters. The activities I have so far are: Activity One: Create a postcard from a favorite place. Draw a picture on the blank side and write a letter to your class describing this place. Be sure to include the school address on the postcard. Activity 2: The post office makes stamps that show important people, places, or events.
Think about something that is important enough for everyone to see every day. Draw a picture of what you think that stamp should look like. Write a 2 or three sentences about why you think it is important enough to be on a stamp. Activity 3 Play Detour ( a game from the book Instant Math Games that Teach by Creative Teaching Press)

These are my ideas so far. I hope it helps.
