I've heard some sponsors say they don't write, because they aren't sure what to write about. I've compiled some question list that might be helpful to you. These were posted on my old blog, and I am reposting them here. The first of these lists is Questions About School. Feel free to use them in your letters, and to answer the questions for your children about yourself, when you were in school.
Some of these questions will be appropriate only for older, or younger children or certain cultures, but I thought it might help some who are stuck with things to talk about. So I compiled a list of as many questions I could think of about school.
If anyone has some other questions about school, please leave them in the comments for us to add to this list!
