Hi,
I am a "looping teacher" (I move from second grade to third grade with my students) in Hinsdale, New York. My third grade teaching partner and I are looking for an English speaking teacher from anywhere in the world who would be interested in exchanging student letters (ages 9 - 10). We would like to include the letters in our reading, writing and social studies lessons to give students a real world connection to other cultures. I would love to hear from anyone with similar interests. I look forward to hearing from you! |
I teach English in an academy whose focus is Global Health and Science. I would love for my students (ages 15-17) to have English-speaking penpals from other countries with whom they could not only practice their writing skills, but also learn more about the health and medical systems in those countries. I have 158 students total, so I need as many responses as possible. :) Thank you! |

Hello! My third grade class would like penpals from all over the world/USA. They want to learn about different schools from different areas. We are located right outside of Pittsburgh, a city in Pennsylvania in the USA. We will write back! |
Our low income, high poverty students want to learn about the world. This gives our students a chance to learn about the world that they may or may not ever be able to visit. I am looking for teens that our students can write to and become friends with and who each one can teach the other about the world and how it is in other places. We are a large school in a urban area that faces high crime and low parental involvement, this gives our children something positive to gather knowledge of the world. |
My class would love to find penpals that they can keep in touch with this school year (Now...November through June 2012). We could exhange pictures, letters, and maybe even some items that represent where we are from. I think it would be a fantastic learning experience for my class. I have 25 students (10 girls and 15 boys). If you are intersted please let me know! |

Hi,
I'm looking for some students who would like to pen pal with some students from a suburban high school in Massachusetts. We are going to be learning about the Civil War this year and one of the areas of study is "sectionalism" and the divide between the North and South that in some ways carries into the present day.
It would be great to have our students interact about what they are learning about the Civil War so they can discuss the way the teachers are approaching the subject, how the students are responding, and what our impressions are about each other given some of the stereotypes that often prevail about the "other".
I think if we structure this properly, this could be a really transformative experience for all the students, and the teachers as well.
Hope to hear from you.

I am teaching a course entitled Facing History and Ourselves: Holocaust and Human Behavior. My students are trying to make sense of the history of this time period and I think it would be helpful to pen pal with German students so that the students can learn about various effects of this time period both then and today. I think it will be very interesting to discuss current events as well.
My students do not know how to speak or write in German, so a class looking to practice their English language skills would be perfect.
Hope to hear from you. |
I am looking for pen pals for my high school class. I teach AP World History to students in a small town who may never have the opportunity to visit foreign countries so I thought it would be wonderful for them so somehow connect with people form another place. Although many of my students take a foreign language it would be most beneficial to have pen pals who can write in English. The class has 20 students in it. I hope to help them make connections with others around the world! |
We would like to have pen-pals from high school students in Japan, with students here in America. Many of the students in our organization that I'm speaking behalf of, would like to enjoy talking and getting to know other people of the world.
