Pen Pals

For the past few weeks we have been learning how to write messages and letters. On Friday we received a wonderful surprise. Kindergarteners from Kansas City, MO write a personal letter to each and every student. All of them were eager to write their new friend back. We are all very excited to spend the rest of the year writing back to them. WE HAVE PEN PALS!!!

Background Knowledge: A partner teacher of mine from 2010 moved to Kansas City a few years back. She is teaching kindergarten up there and we thought it would be not only beneficial to improve our students writing skills but to form a bond and learn about someone that is living a completely different type of living. It is very exciting to see them connect that they are not the only ones in kindergarten!
