Greeting to all,
My daughter's 2nd grade class(21 students) has been looking for a pen-pal group as well. We are in West Virginia. If anyone might be interested then please contact me back at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
An idea that I am trying to implement is a in-school pen pal/mentoring program. The 5th graders will work with 2nd, 4th w/ 1st, and 3rd w/ K. Each week the kids will take approx. 15 mins to respond to each other- they can find out about each other, ask about a test result or plan to meet up somewhere. This helps with reading, writing and social skills. At the beginning of the program the kids will meet to put a face with a name and again at the end of the year. Parental notification and approval is essential as the students may exchange personal information such as phone #'s, etc. You can also check with a school in your own area. Good luck!
