This is Emilie from France. I am a primary school teacher from northern France (I have 25 pupils who are 7 years old). The village where my school is located is called Givenchy-en-Gohelle, which is about 200 km north of Paris.
I am looking for pen friends to start a school correspondence with my class through letters written by hand that we will send you by post. I would like to send our first letters mid November 2015, and ideally would like to continue the correspondence till the end of the school year (June 2016 for us). Each pupil will prepare a letter for his/her penfriend once every two months. They are learning English, so the letters will be written in a very basic English (such as : My name is.../I am ... years old/ I live in ...etc). The aim of this project is to help them improve their English in a motivating way and to discover a different country, culture, and a different school system. Therefore, I would like their penfriends (i.e., your pupils) to write to them in a basic English so that it is not too difficult for them.
I am looking to work with a primary school class based either in Canada or the USA.
It will be great to communicate with a primary school class from Canada as my school is located near a famous World War One Canadian Memorial called the Vimy Memorial, packed with history that attracts thousands of Canadian tourists to this area every year. I thought this would be of interest for a Canadian school.
If you are teaching in a primary school in the United States, that is also of great interest to me.
