| Hi Madison!
Are you still looking for penpals for your students?
I teach English at a Free School on a small island in Denmark. I have a 4th-5th year group of English students (Ages 9-12) who are looking for penpals. There are 20 students in the class. They are very varied in their English abilities. Personally I think it could be fun to "snail mail" as the excitement of receiving a letter has gone I find, but we are also open to emailing.
My hope with a penpal class, is to get the students excited about learning English and see the purpose of being able to communicate with people from around the world. Also obviously as a cultural exchange and a different way of learning how a school day and life on the other side of the world.
Our school is quite small(99 students), we have short days, 8:30am - 1:20 or 2:20pm, this group of students are super sweet and very willing to learn and also very excited by the prospect of finding a penpal class to write with.
You might have received many offers, or maybe we aren't what you are looking for, but if you haven't found a class yet, and are insterested in us, then it would be fun to hear more of what yor expectations are for this exchange. :)
Hope you have a great day!
Best regards
