French PenPals
We have the opportunity this year to write to some French PenPals! We have an entire class of French students learning English who would love to have some first-hand experience with English by writing to some of us! If you're interested, here's what you can do:
-Sign up! You can either sign up on a sheet in Mme. DeFriez's room, or use the form below.
-Just hang tight, and we'll work it all out and get you a lovely PenPal!
-If you are in a French class, it is required that you write your letters in both English and French; your response to what they write should be in English, to help them correct their learning of English, but what you write, not in response to what they said, should be in French, to help you practice your French! (They will be responding to what you write in French in French as well, then moving on to write in English, just opposite of you. And remember: they are just as shy and nervous about speaking another language as you are! So don't be cautious! Write your little heart out!)
-We will be handling all the mailing through Alta to keep the process speedy and organized. We will assign a day every couple of weeks for the mailing, so be sure to have your letters in to one of us by then and we'll send it for you and deliver the responses to you when they arrive!
