We've Got Mail!

We are really enjoying going to the post office to pick up the mail!   The children are LOVING the postcards and often will ask, "Did we get any mail?"  Each postcard is a little lesson....we locate the country on our globe and a world map.  We find out if the children are awake or sleeping.  We are learning about oceans and islands.   We are learning not all children have the same alphabet and so much more!

 

Morgan sent us our first postcard from overseas...

Australia is far away.  

Lexi sent us lots of postcards, a book about

 Australian animals and some Aboriginal art!

Nick's Grandpa Rod and Grandma Barb travel a lot!

We learned that Great Britain/England is an island (so is Australia!)

 China is really far away.  The Great Wall is tall and long.

India is far away, too.  The Taj Mahal is very pretty.

That is just sample of the mail we have received the last six weeks.  You can write us, too!  Send us a post card to---Metamora Community Preschool     P.O. Box 928  Metamora, Illinois  United States of America   61548
