Our official last day of school and we were lucky enough to have a guest teacher. My cousin and her twin boys joined us for a lesson all about the post office. We learned our new address, made personal shoe box mail boxes, and enjoyed a few books on the topic.
Then we headed to Taylor, TX for a grand tour (by the Post Master himself) of the post office built in the 1920’s. The kids dropped a letter to each other in the out-going mail before heading behind the desk. They saw where the mail was sorted, bagged and shipped. We even got a tour of the mail truck and each child was given a coloring book to take home.
