Writing Letters

For our project today, Paige and I read the book Toot and Puddle by Hollie Hobbie. It is a story about two friends, one who loves to travel and one who loves to stay home. The one who stays home gets postcards from the other. After we read it, Paige and I decided we would write a letter to her big brother who goes to school all day. She was thrilled and wanted to make sure we used an envelope. She picked to use markers instead of crayons and decided what color marker I should write with. She told me what to write and I wrote it. We also talked about what letter Blake's name starts with and what letter her name starts with. I wrote Blake's name on the envelope and she decorated it. Then she put it on his pillow.
