I will be teaching children aged 10-12 starting on September 3rd in a School just outside Paris. They are mostly French but are in an International section of their school because they are very good at English. We would love to correspond with you regulary and find out more about our respective countries. If you agree, I will write to you in September to give you our epal addresses and we can start by getting them to introduce themselves. Please confirm if you are interested. Looking forward to working with you. By the way, I grew up in N.Ireland in County Down !

Hi John, I have a year 4/5 multiage class (9/10yrs) in Queensland, Australia keen to learn about another country and develop our eliteracy skills in the process. There are 26 students of mixed ability level. Perhaps we could share things by 'snail mail' as well? Thanks Teena

Hi John

We are a class from New Zealand of 9-10 year olds.  We are looking for a class who is willing to share with us about thier culture and we want to do the same.  We have 28 students so we can pair some up or perhaps some of yours could have two.  We are really keen to get to know you all.

 

We are a 4th grade class (9 and 10 year olds) just outside New York City.  I will have 21 students in my class when we return to school in September.  We would be very excited to have penpals in N. Ireland.  Wouldn't this be a great opportunity for our students to learn about one another?  We would love to talk about our cultural traditions, share original writing and learn about your community.  Looking forward to communicating!

I am a teacher in Tennessee, USA.  I must have a teacher contact in another country that I can ask about the teaching circumstances and processes in another country.  I have only 11 days to get my information and I am in a panic.  This is for a class because I am working on my graduate degree over our summer break.  I have a friend that teaches 3rd grade (8 and 9 year olds) that would love to start a pen pal relationship with another class in Ireland.  Could you help me?  This would take a bit of your time and some typing on your part.  Would you help?

Please let me know.  I have only until July 12 to turn my paper in, so we'd need to start talking over email as soon as possible.

Let me know if you are willing to give your time.

Hi John!
 I am a 2/3/4th grade teacher from Canada who is looking for a pen pals from different countries for each of my 17 students (ages 7-12). I think it would be wonderful for each student to learn about the culture and lives of children their age and to report back their findings to the rest of the students. Would you happen to still be interested in matching one of your students with one of mine? Please let me know as soon as possible!

 Cheers, Danya

We are a P5/6 class in Greenisland, just outside Belfast. There are 19 in our class and we would love to email other children from anywhere!
