Dear You: A Letter with Love on HundrED

2020, HundrEDArlene Tucker1 Comment

I am so honoured to have been invited to write about Dear You on HundrED, a not-for-profit organization, which seeks and shares inspiring innovations in K12 education.

Seeing that Dear You is a mail art exchange, I thought it was best fitting to introduce this project in the form of an open letter. Thank you Milo and Siiri for your good energy, creativity, honesty and open minds!

Documenting our journey from Monterrey to the rest of the world!

Our artworks were shipped today!  I would like you to share with your students the whole experience so they can imagine what happens when you send an envelope to a far away land.  The project will also include "community workers".

Maria Elena Gonzalez, Preschool Principal at Colegio San Patricio in Monterrey, Mexico had the great idea to create a platform for her teachers to share the knowledge and extend the learning experience for their students.

The Nursery and Prep classes at Colegio San Patricio are making and sharing art with schools in Germany, UK, Finland, and Singapore.
