Dear Canadian Troops

In honour of Remembrance day we wrote a class letter to Canadian Troops.  Together, we wrote our introduction. Then, each student took the time to write a personal message to our troops.

  1. This is fantastic. I love this idea and the thoughtful comments you each came up with. Well done! Did you actually send these letters away to troops? If not, I can help you find a way to send them to people that are actually away right now missing their families and sacrificing for our freedom. Just let me know!

    2. Mrs. Dent Scarcello,

      Thank you! We were going to find way to publish this online where it could be viewed by troops, but haven't yet found a site. If you have an address or a site you could send us, we'd appreciate it.
