Around The World Via E-mail
'Geography Alive'

Mrs. Forrest's 6th grade class would like to thank all who have participated in our class project to map where our e-mail has traveled  during the time span of December 13, 2000 to April 1, 2001.  It has been a great success and it is due to the people who have responded.  We have learned a lot about the different states and countries around the world, how nice people are, and how small the world is.   Our first response was from Dell Computer Corporation in Texas, and within a matter of hours our e-mail had reached Japan and had been responded to.

We appreciate each and every response that we have received but, due to overwhelming response from around the United States and the World, we ask that you refrain from sending more e-mail.  At the present time we are 440,000 e-mails behind in checking responses.

We had no idea that the response to our project would be so positive.   As of this time we have received over 450,000 responses from all 50 states and all seven continents.  Thanks to all who have participated and made this project a success.

Click below to see how many responses we have received to date from each state and country.
