TIONESTA, Pa. (EYT) – The students in Mr. Hale’s Fourth Grade at West Forest Elementary are learning the fifty states and capitals.
Each student chose a state to design a stamp.
Following a list of criteria – such as state flags, birds, trees, flowers, and logos – the students looked online to find state information for images on their stamp posters.
The students made rough drafts and then decided what layout would be used for their pictures.
A final copy was designed and attached to a colored border.
Each student was then given a colored copy of their state stamp poster and included it with a letter written to the governor of their chosen state.
Librarian Jane Boyles and guest volunteer Carole Hall assisted the children.
