To the Editor:
Dear people of the great state of South Dakota
I am a third-grade student at the Langley School in northern Virginia. Our class is learning about the United States and I will be teaching our school about South Dakota. In May, I will create a display for our State Fair that I hope will make you proud.
Although I gathered facts about South Dakota from books and the internet, I think I will receive the best information from the people who live there, which is why I am writing to you. I hope you are willing to send me information to help me learn more about the best things in your state; things like post cards, pictures, souvenirs or any other unique item that is useful to show your state pride.
Here are a few questions as well:
• Why do you live in S.D. and what first brought your family there?
• What do you do for a living?
I ask to have any information sent to me by the second week in May, to the address below.
Thank you.
