So I had this idea to collect postcards and create an album for my preschool class as part of preschool social studies. We can match the cards with the locations on our world map. I had mentioned this to a few folks and we have received postcards from Alaska with ones from India hopefully on their way. I am not sure how much my preschoolers will "understand" but hopefully as the year progresses, it will be something they enjoy. Meanwhile my after school boys really enjoyed hearing what my friends visiting Alaska wrote as well as looking at the pictures. So though this began as a preschool project, I think it is one that will be enjoyable and beneficial to my after school program as well. I would love to receive postcards from wherever. So wherever you reside or travel, if you would like to send a postcard my way, I will include it in the "Postcard Book" - a photo album with a cool world map cover! This will then be used to share with the kids I teach. The preschoolers will love the pictures and whatever information you want to share about the place of origin will be educational for the older kids. Thanks in advance. I am excited about all the places we will "see!"
