More Letters from Valley View Elementary

These are my favorite parts of emails sent from Mrs. Allen’s third graders at Valley View Elementary.  I enjoyed reading them and writing back.  Then I thought of something even better… sharing them with you!

Thank you for coming Rinda! I had a great time with you we loved your stories. We looked at your website. It looks like you have a really awesome life meeting all of those authors and illustrators. I think it is fun to write and illustrate stories. But I think I am going to be better at drawing than writing when it comes to stories.

Dear Emalynn,
 I was so happy to come visit you!  I’m glad you loved my stories.  I do love telling them, and I hope I come back to tell some more!

 I’m glad you liked meeting my author friends online.  We had so much fun reading picture books and learning how to be better writers.  I hope you practice your writing.  It makes everything better!

I enjoyed your lesson a lot. I have
been trying to make my own little
​comics but I’m still working on them. I think your books should be published because you put time and effort into those books and I would like to read one.
Rowen
 
Dear Rowen,
 I’m so glad you enjoyed my lesson.  I work really hard on it, and on my books.  I hope, someday, if I work hard enough, you’ll be able to read one.  
 I think it’s exciting, and fun, to make your own comics.  I wish I could.  I’m only good at stick people.  Keep working at it, AND having fun doing it.  Maybe someday, I’ll be looking at your comics.
Rinda

It’s exciting to post email from my friends at Valley View Elementary.   ​It took a while, but it was worth waiting to get student/parent permission to post them.  I love following rules! 
 
When Mrs. Allen emailed permission, she also sent along a question...Could a few more students email?  I answered ABSOLUTELY!  I’m thrilled, a month after my visit, that 3rd graders want to email me, and even better, want to use their keyboarding skills to write those messages.  But I’ve heard Mrs. Allen put out the word that I answer all letters, and who doesn’t love getting mail, especially when your teacher prints a hard copy for you!  I’m looking forward to more emails from my Bobcat friends at Valley View Elementary!
