Default Object Personal Pronoun
Is this sentence correct:
Uncle Jim sent you and me a present.

My daughter's teacher crossed it out and said the correct one is "Uncle Jim sent you and I a present".

She insisted that is the correct one? I am pretty sure it is you and me because it is an object personal pronoun. Can somebody help?
