As you may have heard we have we asked to become pen pals with a 3rd grade class this year. A former student's mother is now teaching 3rd grade school at the American International School of Kingston in Jamaica. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to make a connection/friendship with another person in another part of the world.
Being a teacher, you are always looking for that spark to help you students, especially those resistant to writing. And to be honest you never know what assignment, if any, is going to do that for you. This assignment has been a big hit with many of our resistant writers. Each and everyday someone asks me if they can work on something for their pen pal. We will be sending out the letters early next week.
