This is the probably the last chance your students will get the opportunity to write a letter that year. What a nice way to practice this skill. This paper can be used for any Thank You Project, but I chose for the students to thank the school for what they have received. Before you begin make sure you have a good discussion about what kind of things might be written. I let the students think back to past grades also. Encourage best penmanship. After students are finished (I always had them do a 'sloppy copy' first) with the writing section, proof it, and then let them color. Encourage best coloring. Markers give a more vivid color. Back with colors that are typically thought of for beginning of school - red and green construction paper. Best part of the wall display was the two pieces of art that we put in the center. Drawings were of the school-church. This paper should definitely be placed in the Journal Memory Book.
