What a great idea and I just want to "ditto" what Kim said above. <br /><br />I know it's not the same, but have you ever had pen pals within the school? I have paired older students and younger students that I work with in separate groups (for whatever issue...the pen pal thing is an extra in the group) and it's so much fun when after a few weeks, they get to meet in person. (Except for the few who "cheat and meet" before I say so by hooking up on the playground!) It's fun and a great way to support the writing curriculum!Lisa S. in Williamsburg, VAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13538008903553793409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-89685367020438017292013-08-14T20:27:54.647-05:002013-08-14T20:27:54.647-05:00What wonderful words of wisdom from a wonderfully ...What wonderful words of wisdom from a wonderfully wise woman...<br /><br />Kim<br /> <a href="http://joyin6th.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Finding JOY in 6th Grade</a>Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03596768050411395194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-42375957763002896092013-08-14T19:39:21.839-05:002013-08-14T19:39:21.839-05:00Ah, thanks Tammy.

We learned so much from that experience-I wish more kids today would be interested in something like that.<br /><br /><a href="http://notjustchildsplay.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">NotJustChild'sPlay</a>Miss Trayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994698870486768685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-7761049411291430552013-08-14T19:24:27.665-05:002013-08-14T19:24:27.665-05:00Those are beautiful words Barb for the rookie and ...Those are beautiful words Barb for the rookie and the veteran.<br />❀ Tammy<br /><i><b><a href="http://foreverin1st.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Forever in First</a></b></i>Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18053983168084838303noreply@blogger.com
