My second group of third graders started their penpal project and - much to my surprise - they got just as into the whole thing as the other class did! Usually, this class is much more "meh" about all of my classes and projects... but this one really got them going. They worked very hard on their letters and even decorated them all in their own way. See, the plan is to just take a photo of each of their letters, instead of retyping them, so that their personalities can come out through them (and so I don't have to do extra work... *coughcough*)
While they were writing, their teacher had the idea of taking the student's pictures, too, and sending them on. BRILLIANT! And so, after each pair was done with their letter, I had them take a picture with their letter before I took a close up of their letter. And ohmygoodness did the photos turn out BEYOND adorable!!! ^_^
XOXO
