							| Pen Pals... and suggestions... wanted! 
 |  
							| Hello everybody!
I �m a Middle School English teacher in Italy.
I �ve been asked to organize an L2 expansion course for 10 pre-intermediate Ss. They are mostly girls aged 13 (8th graders), quite well prepared  and highly motivated.
I �m teaching them for 12 hours in the afternoon, soon after school and I �d really like to propose them well structured but non conventional activities to improve their skills.
Any suggestions?
I would even like to offer them the possibility to correspond with same aged English mother tongue pals... |  3 May 2013

							| THANKS for your replies!
I �m already en epal.com member. It �s a quite fantastic site but I �ve found it difficult to find and "meet" English mother tongue pals there...
In two years I �ve succeeded only once.
I thought it could be easier to ask here!
Anyway I �ll ask my Ss if any other opportunity could be the same.
Cheers |  5 May 2013
