Re: Burgundy Middle School looking for east coast US exchan
Barbara,
I teach appx 150 8th graders in French 2. I would love to set
up an exchange. We tried last year through epals and it did
not go well. My kids were very eager to commit and
communicate. We are in Massachusetts so that would work well.
Let me know if you still need a group!
