\nI have a great group of 6th grade students learning English as a second language. They would like to practice their English and learn about different cultures as well. Their first language is Spanish and Portuguese to some of my students. We would love to hear from you sometime!:-)

\nI'm an English teacher at a Private school in Caracas, Venezuela. It's a small school, but full of love and extra curricular activities. I teach 4th, 5th and 6th grade, but the students that are going to be involved in this activity are the ones from 6th grade. This is a multilevel class. They are learning English as a foreign language. We are working with a book called BACKPACK 5 and we just saw the website in unit one. They are really enthusiastic about having friends around the world and sharing their culture while improving their language skills.

\nAll my students learn English as a second language. They also have some subjects in English, but their native language is Spanish. However, the've been exposed to English since Kinder; therefore, their English level is quite good. We would like to correspond preferably with kids around their same ages. We are very excited about this program.

\nHi! My students are in 6th grade Primary. They are learning English as a second language. They would like to communicate with students from South Africa or the USA through emails. We're starting working in a project and we'd like to be in touch with new people. We'd like to learn more from your culture and be friends and learn together in a different way.

Our World's Fresh Water
\n1. What is water?
\n2. What is the water cycle?
\n3. Why is water important?
\nWhat problems does the world face with its water supply?
\nWhen is water good to drink? In this project, students will research the world's water problems, particularly fresh water, focusing on how their personal water use affects aquatic ecosystems in their communities. Students will participate in email exchanges, exploring the global importance of water, especially in their ePals' location.
\n
\nForecasting the Future: How Weather Works
\n1. What conditions create weather?
\n2. What factors make the weather change?
\n3. In what ways does weather affect our lives?
\nWhat methods should we use for predicting the weather?
\nHow is a good weather forecast made? In this unit, students will become meteorologists as they explore the conditions that make up weather. Through an ongoing email exchange, students will share weather related information about their own location while learning about the weather in their ePals location.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[{"id":"28015935","body":"Jill,
