The Great Mail Race
Ms. Drury’s Fourth Grade class at South Leake Elementary School is participating in The Great Mail Race. The Great Mail Race is about fourth grade students writing to other fourth grade students in other states, telling them about their class, their school and their community.
Ms. Drury’s class received a letter from Brittney in Mrs. Barker’s class at Dogwood Elementary School in Kearney, Missouri (about 20 miles north of Kansas City), inviting the class to participate in The Great Mail Race. The letter also told about their class and school.
In The Great Mail Race, the fourth grade class is invited to reply with information such as:
What is the name of your school?
Do you have a school mascot?
Is your school named after a person or place?
When does your school day begin and end?
What is your community like?
The letter also challenges the class to write to a school in each of the fifty states.
Our school has students from more than one community. Some of the schools we will write to are one of many elementary schools in their city. It is interesting to learn about other schools and fourth grade classes across the country.
We are excited to take part in The Great Mail Race!
