Penpalling has been an activity which was highly followed in English speaking countries. Nowadays, though, with new technologies, it has been relegated to the past, given that we prefere writing e-mails or text messages instead of letters.
However, our school started a few months ago a new project where we will exchange letters with a school established in Turkey. It is the school Ülkem Koleji, in Manisa (Turkey). First, we got into the programme by Cambridge Penfriends and we waited for a school which matched us. So, in fact, they found us. When we received the letters from the Turkish students we read them, compared them, shared the information included with our friends and finally we wrote the letters to be sent back to the Turkish school. We are also going to display those letters so everybody in our school can see them. In this post, we are showing you some of the pictures we took that day.
Unfortunately, our summer holidays are very near and maybe the project will be continued in September again.
