Hello everybody,
I am looking for penfriends to my 60 pupils aged 12 and 13.
We are from Tunisia and I want them to improve their writing skill , exchange new ideas and find out about new cultures. So any interested colleague from around the world in this correspondance and why not twinning schools, please send me a reply and we can make this possible. Thanks. Dorra.

Hi Dorra, My name is Saskia McCashin and i would be happy to help one of your pupils but i am not a school, i don’t know if you are ok if i am not a school because i would be happy too help. I am 12 years old and in england we call it year 7 so i am in high school. I would love to be a penpal and help your pupils with writing skills.
I am from england and i would love to teach them about what we do in england and i can also teach one of them somethings about places around the world. In school i am learning about maps in humanities and i am very happy to bring what i have learnt from my class to teaching them something. I am half indian but i dont know nothing about it but i am doing research on it. How old are your pupils? Let me just say something. My internet is going off soon but will be back on again soon so i might have too write letters instead of emails. Is that Ok?

From Saskia

P.S. Get back to me as soon as possible please.

Hi Saskia!

I am not Dorra. Sorry. My name is Annie and I am an English teacher in Québec. I teach many students (maybe 300) but I have two very motivated girls in grade six who asked me for a special project. I thought they would like to talk with girls of their age from a different country. They are 11 and 12.

If you are interested to exchange messages with them (by Internet or by letters), please tell me. If you have a friend who is interested as well, you could each have you penpal.

Please give me news at this adress: annielegarebilodeau@hotmail.com

Thanks!

Hi Dorra,

I’m also looking for penpals for my 2 middle school classes. Both classes are about 50-55 ss. I want the ss to practice their writing skills and to make some good friends while learning about other cultures and countries.
My ss are roughly between the ages of 13-15.
