I teach 6th-8th grade social studies. I am interested in joining
the pen pals project with my 7th and 8th graders. What all is
involved in the process? Do students write letters to a specific
child, or do they need to be generic messages? I'd imagine that
all the letters are put in one large envelope and mailed directly
to one of the pen pal schools. I'll have around 70 kids
participating in the program. Any information you could provide
is welcome.
