Project Update

Hi....My students are very excited to be E-Pals with students from New Zealand!  We are in the process of writing introductory letters.  Our plan is to send them tomorrow!  So far, the kids have come up with some great letters and they are looking forward to hearing back from their E-Pal.  This first letter consists of the students introducing themselves.....they give their name, age, where they live, family life, pets, etc.  They also talk about what their hobbies are and what they like to do.  As we get more involved with the project we are going to expand the conversation to talk about our school and our community.  As we wait to hear back from our E-Pals, the students are going to do some research on New Zealand and we are going to generate some questions to ask our E-Pals.
