A Letter from the "First Lady"

 

From Washington, D.C.

Washington School
A Letter from the First Lady! 
After creating banners and viewing President Obama’s inauguration on television, Miss Papero’s second grade students wanted to write a letter to Sasha Obama, since she is also in second grade.   The class brainstormed ideas and wrote a class letter in booklet form, complete with illustrations.   A week later they mailed the booklet.  The children hoped that they would get a response of some sort.  Happily, on May 18, they did.  An envelope from the White House arrived at Washington School.  Enclosed was a personalized letter to the class from Michele Obama.  She also included autographed photos of herself and the President!  The students were thrilled, to say the least.  It was project they will never forget!
