Pen Friends, Project Blog and Blogs for Foreign Languages (II)

Dear Colleagues,

I have already introduced you Yannick and Gabi, two of our four students who are going to travel to Paris in February. I’m going to do the same with the other two students, Karina and Dani. They have already written their own introduction letters and I’m going to publish them in the Project Blog. I'll also send you the email adress of this four students as soon as possible. On the other side, we are three teachers travelling to Paris. I have joined the group myself.

Can your mobitity students to Paris or to Foligno in April please do the same? Let them please write an introduction letter about themselves (name, origin, family, hobbies, school, interests…) in order to post them in the Project Blog. This will be a way so that mobility students get to know each other. It would also be very nice if hosting students in Paris and Foligno wrote an introduction letter too.

You can publish any other students’ writings in the blogs for foreign languages (English, French and German). Maybe we should also think about the possibility of creating another blog, a Spanish Blog, since at least Portuguese and French students are learning Spanish as a foreign language.

Finally we are also thinking about the convenience of using eTwinning as a platform in order to bring our students in contact via Email. In that case you should first of all register yourselves in this website. As far as I know Burkhard has already created a profile. If all teachers participating in the pen friends activity had a profile in eTwinning, we could also register our students and they could then communicate.

Best wishes!

Miquel

Penfriends

Dear colleagues,

We are M. Jesús and Mandi from the English department in Joan Ramis High School in Spain. We are writing because we would like to start dealing with the pen friends activities and we are sure that many of you are willing to get started too.

First of all, we would be very grateful if you wrote us back to know which schools are interested in doing this activity. It is also essential to specify the number of students who are going to do it, as well as their ages and level, so that we can think of the best way to organise the exchange.

As for our school, we have about 100 students who are studying English as a foreign language. They are 16 – 17 years old and they are in non compulsory education. Their level is approximately B1 and they would be interested in exchanging emails in English. Apart from them, there are also about 50 pupils who are studying French and German as a foreign language and they would also be interested in exchanging emails in French (16) and German (31). They are more or less the same age as the English students but with different levels.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards

Mª Jesús and Mandi
