The Key-Pals Project



This month we are celebrating International Month of Friendship by participating in an E-pal Project with students living overseas.  During this project, the children will build a relationship with other students in another part of the world using 21st-century tools. 

By the end of this project, students and teachers will have shared photos documenting day to day life at school, an art activity done by the students for their e-pals, a short video with a special message, and an exchange of e-mails which describe specific details of their lives and ask thoughtful questions about the lives of their E-pals.

They will discover similarities and differences between places and people and increase their social and cultural awareness.  This project will provide an authentic and engaging learning experience which will have a direct impact on student motivation to learn a second language.
