Letters (Messages/Notes) for Young Learners
|
Hello everybody,
Just a question: Does anybody know of a website where we can find samples of letters for young children (age 6 to 7)?
It would be ideal if anyone knew of a printable resource that includes a whole story that is told through letters sent between the characters in the story. It would be an engaging way to expose students to letter writing.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Please note that "letters" here means messages and notes to friends, etc. I´ve also changed the subject of my post to reflect this.

Thank you for the help Victoria. I knew I should have made my post clearer. I meant letters as in messages that we send to friends/each other.
Dear John letters, for example.
Thanks for the assistance anyway!

The story �The letter � from the book �Frog and Toad are Friends � by Arnold Lobel might be nice. It tells about how Frog sends a letter to his friend Toad by snail mail (literally) and together they wait for it to arrive. It stesses how great it is to get a letter from a friend, very sweet. |

Thanks MarionG! There are lots of lesson plans connected to that too! I �m going to try to find a copy at the library.
Please continue to post more ideas/suggestions, especially ones that may be printable. I welcome them!
