Day One: National Parks

Today the kids (finally!) were allowed to open up their letters from actual national park rangers.  Several weeks ago, kids wrote to different national park rangers, and since then, several envelopes have poured in!

The kids were able to explore their materials today, and they even began taking notes on special features (i.e. animals, size, features, accomodations, location).  Some chose to take it home to get a better understanding before tomorrow, and some are looking forward to visiting some of the sites listed on their materials.  Either way, tomorrow will be day two, and some may even begin publishing their very own national parks brochure.

Look what came in the mail!
