Weekly Stamp Collection - Total 7,441

Each Tuesday we collect stamps from each classroom.  There is always great excitement in finding out where the stamps came from, who/what is on them and what new sizes and shapes we received.  All stamps are carefully trimmed and sorted by categories such as people, plants, animals, art, US states, foreign, military, patriotic symbols, holidays, vehicles, sports, scenery, etc.  Foreign stamps are posted on a world map on a bulletin board in the 4th and 5th grade hallway.

This week we received over 800 stamps from a parent of a first grader who has some connection to a phone company.  H-m-m-m-m . . . think about people that you know who work someplace where a lot of mail is received and ask them if they might save them for you.  I'm a great "rebater" at Menards.  I wonder who opens all those envelopes?

Thanks for helping us collect and keep those stamps coming!
