Snail Mail
Fpor this activicty I had to draw a post card. I learnt that many people back in the days used to send letters all the time. They didn't have phones back then to message people. They only used mail to communicate.I thought of adding in summery things to my post card since it is summer and I added in some fake names and address to make is look real.

Marieta you are a star!
ReplyDeleteThank you for much for sharing a fantastic post! I know many people will find that helpful! I often forget when sending a letter which corner to put the stamp on. ;P
Did you know in New Zealand there is a place with the world’s longest name.
Imagine writing to your friend at this address!! I don’t think it would fit on a letter unless it was a metre long!!!
Full name: Taumatawhakatangi¬hangakoauauotamatea¬turipukakapikimaunga-horonukupokaiwhen¬uakitanatahu (85 letters)
Short-forms: Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu (57 letters) Taumata (7 letters) Location: North Island, New Zealand Language: Māori Translation: "The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one" Notes: Listed in the Guinness World Records as the longest official placename in the world.
