Dear Santa...

We have been practicing the correct format for writing a letter. We wrote a first draft, edited it, and then wrote the final draft of a letter to Santa. After we finished, we thought...how fun would it be to “fly” these letters to Santa.

Students designed their own airplanes out of the letter and then we raced them to see whose would go the farthest. We measured the one that went the farthest. They didn’t quite make it to the North Pole, but we had fun trying.

The airplane that went the furthest belonged to Paxton.  His plane flew 8 yards, 1 foot, and 8.5 inches.
