Class Albums

It is our first week back from Winter Break and our letter writing continues with more focus and enthusiam than ever before. Over break, STA students wrote a total of 90 letters to the White House! Our top letter writer wrote an amazing 33 letters alone! In her letter she expressed to President Obama how much she LOVES writing letters.

Today we are sending out three hefty packets of letters. Ms. Julie’s and Ms. Kelly’s kindergarten classes each are sending a class book of letters that are bound with their class picture on the front. Ms. Lecher’s first grade also has a class packet full of lunch invitations and illustrations. One first grader wrote, “Come to our school. We have good manners.” Another said, “Have a good Christmas. Please Obama I love you and will you come to see us? Yes or No.”

There is also a packet containing letters from the entire school. One student made President Obama a beaded bracelet and attached it to her letter.

One thing that really excites me is how much writing the students are doing. With special stationary and letter templates, they are wanting to write letters. The practice of writing is what it is all about! Have a wonderful day. Love, Ms. G
