Pen Pals

By far one of the coolest things we have done this year.

My best friend is doing a year of service in Paraguay.

She is teaching English.

We came up with the idea to have our kids be pen pals!

It really was incredible.

Here is our last batch of letters. 

Dear Jessica, Summer is coming and it is getting hot. I am 6. We are doing a play next week. I am going to Florida. Thank you for the letter. Love, Michael

Dear Deisy, It is getting warm, I hope you have fun making snow men. We are doing a play next week. We are learning about life cycles this week. Do you have a computer? Love, Hayden

P.S my name is spelled: Hayden

P.P.S: I have a lab 

Dear Cynthia, I have two cats. could you teach me guarmi? I am six. Were doing a play next week. I am going to first grade. What are you learning about in math? Do you have Cats? Do you go to first grade? Love, Ryan

Me and Juan Playing Soccer (Juan is his pen pal!)

Dear Juan, I like to play soccer too. We live in Johnston Rhode Island. I am six this summer. Were graduating next week. Did you ever watch star wars? I hope you have fun. Thank you for the letter. Love, Alberto

They came up with these all on their own!

The only direction was to answer their friends questions and come up with a question of their own. 

So cute and such a great experience for them!
