Pen Pals from Mexico

 The past couple of weeks we have enjoyed reading letters from our pen pals from Mexico. 
It's fun to  hear about their favorite movies, their school, their friends, sports, etc.
We are now composing letters to these students about our school, our families, our favorite sports, foods, and activities. 

These letters have come through the church and are a great way for our sixth graders to expand their horizons and practice using their Spanish. 



 We found where our pen pals live!
