PENPAL 5th A and B

To practice and learn English in a meaningful way, the 5th A and B class students participate in an exchange project by writing Christmas letters. Each student has a “pen pal” from a school in the United Kingdom (Deanery School in Birmingham). They write a Christmas letter in English and Spanish, and in return, they receive a Christmas letter from their pen pal, also written in English and Spanish (as their pen pals are learning Spanish).

In these letters, they share information about themselves (where they live, their family, hobbies) and describe how we celebrate Christmas and our traditions.

This activity is an excellent way to practice writing and reading comprehension skills, as well as to learn about other traditions, celebrations, and cultures.
