							| Pen Friend Project 
 |  
							| Hi everyone, last year I was taking part in Postcrossing.com project with my students. Some of the really enjoyed writing postcards to people from all around the world and I was wondering if there is anyone here who would like to take part in a typical pen friend project, which would involve sending hand-written letters together with postcards etc.
 
 I teach kids aged 10-13 as well as teenagers aged 13-16. Please get in touch with me should you be interested.
 
 Cheers everyone!

							| Hi Tooomas!   My students are 11-14 years old and they would love to have pen friends to exchange letters, postcards, etc, to get to know other young people and their customs and culture.  Therefore, we are interested in corresponding with you and your students. I �ll be waiting for your suggestions if you are interested in starting this exchange.    Best wishes   Maria Ramos |  17 Oct 2012

							| It �s a good idea! I �ve got 12-year-old students that would like to participate in this type of activity. How about doing the project with Polish, Portuguese and Spanish students?   See you!   Gloria |  17 Oct 2012

							| That �s a great idea. My students would like to be a part of this project. 
They are 10-12 years old learners. Sending postcards would be really interesting and entertaining for them. Handwriting letters are also a good idea. If you like, we can be in touch. Or any other friend would like to try, let me know. You can also send me a private message.  Hugs from Turkey. |  17 Oct 2012

							| I was just looking for an opportunity to enroll on such an activity. My students and I are really interested. I teach 14-16 year-old students, to whom I talked about the advantages of having such a communication and they are eager to try it. Can you please include me in? |  17 Oct 2012
