President's Day Activity

Hey Girls,
So I don't know about any of you but I was struggling to find something fun and interesting to do with my kids for president's day. Well, I ended up coming across a fun idea so I thought I'd share. You can have your students write a letter to the president and tell them you will be mailing it to the White House. They can ask him anything they want (you might want to do a pre interactive writing to talk about appropriate ideas) then you actually mail the letters to the white house and your class will receive a package that has stickers, a letter, a packet about the white house and presidents. I thought it sounded pretty fun! Hopefully it really works! Anyway, I'm gonna try it tomorrow. It takes 6 to 8 weeks to get something back. I'll let ya know how it works out.
