All of my English Classes are currently working on letters for participation in The Great Mail Race.

 

We originally received a letter from an 11th grade student from Expedition Academy in Green River, Wyoming.  I completed a survey of all my classes so we could gather all of our favorites (i.e. food, sports, movies, books, etc.)  We also reviewed interesting fun facts about New Jersey and looked up all the famous people who were originally born in this great state.  I will then fill in all our final answers and school information on the questionnaire they enclosed and mail it back.

 

Additionally, all students chose a state or US territory to send a letter too as well.  Students our writing their own letter introducing themselves, Camden High School, and the city of Camden.  Once the letters are written, revised, and final drafts typed we will mail them to a school in the state that they chose.  Letters will be mailed with a class questionnaire just like ours was.

 

We are hoping to receive several completed questionnaires in return so we can learn about our fellow students from all over the country and Puerto Rico.
