A Letter From President Obama

So proud of one of my students. She decided to write a letter to President Obama and ask him some questions. He wrote a lovely heartfelt letter back to her. She shared the letter and all the wonderful things he sent in the envelope with our class today. She inspired many of the students to write a letter too.

Discussing the story and talking. Students are creating questions for other groups to answer.
