Penpals
|
Hello,
I �m an English teacher from germany and I �m teaching class 5-9. I �m looking for penpals for four of my students in 9th grade. We would like to write english emails to real persons instead of only writing "imaginary" emails.
Who would like to be our penpal?
greetings to everyone
Evelyn

Hi Evelyn!
I �d be very interested, but my students are 9 and 10 years old...are they too young? |

I �m homeschooling my own boys ages 10, 12, and 14. I think they would enjoy writing if anyone needs a few extra penpals. I �d especially love to get my 10 year old involved because he needs to practice his letter writing too.

Hello,
Thank you all for your quick replies. My ninth-graders are 15/16 so they are probably too old. But I �m also teaching 5th (they are 10 and 11) and 8th grade (they are 14/ 15, but still not "all grown up"). I will talk to my students, but I really like the idea of writing letters to other Englishstudents, because it helps them practise and it is really motivating. And they can learn something about other countries too.
I �ll write each of you a personal message this afternoon. Thank you again! I would be very happy to cooperate with you!

HI EVELYN,
MY NAME IS ANDREIA AND I TEACH AT A PRIVATE SCHOOL IN RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL. I HAVE A GROUP OF 20 STUDENTS. THEIR AGES ARE 10 - 14 YEARS OLD. AND I START A PROJECT WHERE THEY WOULD SEND POSTCARDS FROM BRAZIL AND THEM RECEIVE POSTCARDS FROM STUDENTS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES. WE HAVE ALREADY EXCHANGED POSTCARDS WITH TURKEY, SLOVENIA AN ARGENTINA. ARE YOU INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING?
SEE YOU ANDREIA |
