> Dear ETNI-ers,
> We would like to tell you about an exciting learning adventure our 5th and
> 6th grade classes had this year. We made contact with a Long Island (New
> York) Hebrew School and began a pen-pal correspondence which, so far, has
> proven to be most successful. The children write to each other in English
> (with our help) and we have used the opportunity to teach how to write a
> friendly letter and work on general writing skills. In their letters, the
> children ask questions, tell about themselves, and learn about life in the
> different countries. Some have even exchanged pictures, and even we, the
> teachers, are writing to our colleagues in that school. The only mistake
> we made was to start the project too late in the year (January). This new
> school year, we will start the project almost immediately.
>
> With the advent of summer vacation, the kids are on their own, but we have
> no doubt that at least some of these new friendships will stand the test of
> (summer) time.

> Happy Summer Vacation,
