Apologies for not updating more recently. We've been so busy around here! Recently, the third graders wrote letters to their favorite authors. We haven't done this activity in previous years, and I'm glad we did this year. This was a great activity. Students learned how to write a friendly letter, how to address an envelope, how to search for an author's address, and learned that many publishing companies are in New York.
They wrote letters to Raina Telgemeier, Jeff Kinney, Tom Watson, and Rachel Renee Russell, to name a few!
