P.S. Write Soon! Teachers' Notes.
Edwards, Pat
Prepared to accompany an Australian letter writing guide for students, this teachers' guide provides suggestions for integrating letter writing into the school curriculum, either through regularly scheduled activities during the school year, or through special letter writing units of a few weeks. Topics covered in the guide include: (1) the craft of letter writing; (2) developing the writing habit; (3) how to be a "fabulous letter writing" class; (4) post office boxes in the classroom; (5) class writing projects (including the world's longest letter, the world's biggest letter, Dear Teacher..., and welcome to class...); (6) across the curriculum with a social studies bias (including writing letters within and outside of Australia, letters as bridges, please-send-me-some-information letters, and letters to local, state, and commonwealth officials); (7) letters in mathematics classes; (8) letters in history classes; (9) letters and music and poetry; (10) letters and arts and crafts; and (11) a classroom stamp club.
