Mail Call...

Ben's class is doing a unit on mail this week. They've been learning how to write a letter and writing letters to one another. There is a post-office set up in the classroom where certain kids each day act as the mail carriers and others work in the post office "selling" stamps and sorting the mail.

Here are two that were written to Ben that came home today. The first one made me laugh. The second one is just too sweet for words... (it was written by the little girl in the class who I've always felt sad for... she's the one who didn't have a Halloween costume and had to borrow one from the teacher and whose parents never seem to check or empty her take-home folder :( )





Incidentally, I find the handwriting on letter #2 extremely impressive. Holy cow. Ben's handwriting is atrocious.

Anyway, they also mailed letters to themselves from the school office that should be arriving tomorrow... can't wait to see what Ben wrote to himself. ;)
