Cards from Across North America

This month our class has been participating in a card exchange with other classes from across North America through Projects by Jen.  The theme this year is snowmen, so our class created snowmen cards, then placed them in envelopes and sent them to our project partners in places like Saskatewan, Tenesse, Florida and Idaho.  The students are very excited with every card we receive and can often be found at the bulletin board when they have some free time.
