Hello!
I am a gifted education teacher in the USA. My students are interested in learning about other cultures! I have about 19 students between the ages of 5-8. Please let me know if you are interested! |
If you're a middle or high school teacher in the U.S. looking to connect your classroom with a class from a different state, check out American Pals at www.americanpals.org. It's an intra-national pen pal organization helping American students connect with peers outside their geographic/cultural "bubbles" through year-long, offline letter exchanges. It's a great way to help bridge some of the divides in the country while allowing kids to rediscover a form of communication/relationship-building different from what they've learned in the digital age! |
Hello! I teach 8th grade Science and Principles of Engineering. I would love my students to be able to write students from other countries so that they can have a greater appreciation for diversity. Please get back with me! Jana |
We are looking for high school (Ages 15-18) pen pals for our 2019-2020 school year, specifically in Asia. We have many European pen pals already so we would like some more diversity. This is also a great opportunity for international students to learn English.
If you are interested, please contact me at langleypenpals@gmail.com |
I am a middle school teacher in a very small rural school in Washington state. My students are predominately Caucasian, and because of the remoteness of our school they are not often exposed to other cultures/lifestyles/ideas. I am looking for another middle school teacher who would like to start a pen pal activity for the remainder of the school year. I have 10 students in my class this quarter. I will have 12 next quarter - and a similar amount the following quarters. If you are interested, please let me know. I am trying to educate my kids on letter writing skills and introduce them to other students from different ideologies within the United States. |
HELLO, my name is Mike Frost. I am a middle school art teacher. I want to start a conversation using art to send from my school to another school outside the United States. I think by creating a correspondence through mail using art, the students can get a feel of each others culture.

Hello. I have 24 4th grade students looking for pen pals. I would like to try surprise pen pals. Each letter (snail mail) would give clues as to where they are located.

My name is Daniel. I teach a French 1 to English/Spanish-speaking students in Chicago USA. We are looking for pen pals. My goal is to find writing partners for at least two of my four classes. It would be fun for students to correspond in French and English.

If successful, maybe we could continue next school year when they take French 2. |

Hello All Teachers from around the world,
I teach 20 Special Needs middle school students in North Carolina, USA. We would like to converse through email with other English speaking students to share thoughts and ideas on culture with other countries in order to participate in the Digital Learning Community. Sharing these ideas will help with our Content & Instruction as well as Digital Citizenship.
We can share thoughts and ideas on foods, clothing, environmental issues, traditions, holidays or anything else that the students might want to discuss. The aim of this project is to not create other assignments for them, but to just have them communicate ideas, and have opportunities to write. They can also share pictures or short video clips from their schools.
If this sounds interesting to your school and students and you would like to participate please email me at beverlyturner@wcps.org. I am looking forward to hearing from any school from around the world who would like to take part. |
