2009-2010 Postcard Project
We have received 28 postcards so far. They are from New Hampshire, Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland, Tennessee, North Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico, California, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska, South and North Dakota, Wisconsin, Kansas, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Minnesota, Iowa and Mississippi.
The children enjoy reading the postcards as they come in. We have learned many facts about these states. Whenever we get a new postcard we find the state on our big map in the hall and then add the postcard to our collection. The children have also learned facts about Vermont such as our capital, our state insect, our state tree and our state flower. Ask your child what color the dome on the Statehouse is. Maybe you could go by the Statehouse the next time you are in Montpelier to show your child what it looks like.
