Snail Mail Update

      Well, we're a couple of weeks into our Snail Mail Project and it's going very well.  I've sent 2 letters and I managed to get all of our Christmas cards in the mail yesterday as well.  December 1st is definitely a record for me.  The kids are really starting to get into the project as well.  They weren't quite as sure before but they received their first letter this week and it totally renewed their enthusiasm.  They have started a list of who they want to write to and it's getting long.  They aren't even asking to type them in Word like they do with the writing assignments they get from class.  This is becoming a wonderful experience.
