• First off we want to start by saying thank you for participating in this project. We are very grateful that you all are willing to help do this. Here are some examples that you can go off of to help your kids complete the postcards.

• • They can either draw or cut out pictures that help show their favorite sport.

• • On the back of the post card they need to tell us who they are and why they like the sport(s).

• • Please try and get some pictures of the kids working on their project, and a group photo would also be nice.

• • Please try and have some/all special needs kids doing this project. If you do not have many special needs kids, it is ok for you to include kids without disabilities to increase the number of kids participating.

• • Please try and have this completed and sent back to us by 31 October 2014, if you will be unable to get us the postcards by then, please just let us know.

• • When you are done with the postcards, please scan and send them back to us via email. It would be awesome if you could send the postcards to us in the mail, but if not it is ok. If you are unable to scan the post cards and send them to us, just let us know how we can help you get the post cards to us or we will try and figure something out.

• • When we receive both of the group’s postcards, we will redistribute them to opposite groups and you can show your kids.

• You can contact us by email or phone. • Group Contact Email Phone• Dominican Republic Justin McIntosh [email protected]

• First, all kids need to have a piece of paper for this project.

• Second, we had the kids pick and choose their favorite sport.

• Third, the kids went ahead and found pictures of their favorite sports in magazines and made an art collage to send to the group here in Murfreesboro.

• The group here in Murfreesboro is a part of the Children Are People, Inc. They are going to make the exact same project and trade with the Dominican.

• Email made this process fairly easy unless there was no response
