as i walked to work today... i thought of europe...




every year my lower elementary classroom studies one continent. so, in their three years in our classroom and their three years in upper elementary, they will have studied all of the continents. last year, we studied australia... this year we're studying europe!

our students are even more excited than we are to share and learn about europe... it's such an amazing continent and our curriculum is packed! just today and yesterday... our entire classroom worked on political and physical maps and some students worked on creating a europe flag book. they're excited! as am i...
and i thought, while walking to work this morning... what better way to bring europe to my students than to actually have europe go to them!

so, i'm asking you, dear blog readers... if you or, anyone you know lives in europe and if you would be willing to send a postcard to a classroom of twenty- one enthusiastic children. if you are, please leave me a comment or email me and i will email you the classroom address...
thank you!

is tomorrow really friday? already?

How fun! If I lived in europe I would definitely send you a postcard. However, my cousin lives in england and as she is a very nice sort of girl I'm sure she would be happy to send one!
