The Great Mail Race

Do you want to know a fun way to learn about each of the 50 United States?


...then join the Great Mail Race! This is an activity that integrates geography and writing while having fun. The girlz wrote 50 letters between them to schools located in every state. Their letters were written in proper friendly letter style, the envelopes were correctly addressed, and the letters contained information about their state of Arizona. The goal is to receive a response from every state while learning about our entire country. To date, they have received letters from Idaho, Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, and Kansas. In the process, the girlz have acquired three pen pals!

  1. I really enjoy reading your blog. It makes me want to go to school again. No wonder the boys want to be home homeschooled!
