Wanna help out Second Graders??

Post by Ki »

Our son's class is trying to get as many postcards from other states (we are in KY) and countries so they can look it up on a map and help the students to be interested in geography.

If you are interested in participating, PM me (or Malik), and one of us will send you the details.

I appreciate your help! And so does Malik Jr. :)

Considering it's a geography project I would suggest cards that depict the place you are sending it from but I don't think notes are necessary. I mailed a San Francisco post card and just wrote "Good Luck!" on it.

I've been hunting desperately for a "Gainesville" postcard.
But, everything I'm finding is UF oriented.
How well will that go over in Kentucky, Ki?
