It takes a little bit of pre-planning to set up a Pen Pal program for your students. But it's worth your time and effort because Pen Pals increase student awareness on so many levels - socially, geographically, linguistically, culturally, and more.
I recommend taking a little time this summer to plant a few seeds for a Pen Pal program that you can implement in the coming school year. Specifically, start looking for a classroom with which to partner up. Hint: our Elementary Educators Forum is an ever-popular venue for such match-ups. Have fun adding a little Pen Pal power to your curriculum!
