LET ´S START A PENPAL & POSTCARD CONNECTION !!!
 
Hi, everybody!

I teach young learners and this year my students are 10-12 years old.

I would like to make them much aware of other cultures and do it as a part of real life.
If anyone is interested, we can start such kind of connection. The same age students can be matched and they can write postcards and handwritten letters to each other. 

It would be really entertaining for them. I would like to start with my 5th grade students. I have 50 students in 5th grades. They are 11 years old and so interested in English. Also, I teach them 2 extra hours a week and this will provide enough time. 

If anyone is really concerned and serious, please contact me ASAP. You can also send me a private message. 

Thanks right now. Hugs from Turkey.

Hi, Hany !
Thanks for your attention. I really would like to say yes, but your students are barely older than mine. I guess that may be a problem. I know the levels may be similar, but age similarity is also a big point.
 
Thanks anyway. I hope you can find an enthusiastic colleague for penpal exchange quickly.
Greetings from Turkey.
