So, I have received oodles of emails asking if I am hosting the Pen Pal Pair Up this year. I might be insane taking this one on again . . . especially with the move to the new school, but I am going to accept the challenge!
The slots fill quickly (I take the first 500-700 teachers . . . we shall see how many I am game for), so be ready to jump on board quickly if you want in on this event! I promise to give you a little notice before I post the sign up doc. This will give a fair “heads up” to all who might be interested. With this said, be sure you follow my Instagram and Facebook accounts as I will announce the exact time the Pair Up will go live on both of these social media outlets.
For those of you who don’t know what the Pen Pal Pair Up is all about, I find another classroom/teacher to match you up with for the year. In essence, I take the “finding” and “connecting” part out of the process for you . . . your class just has to take the time to write 🙂 It’s a great way to work in geography and friendly letter writing. Oh, and you don’t have to be a blogger to participate. I mostly pair up teachers K-6 (although I have found matches for some 7th and 8th in the past three rounds).
Alright, that is it from little old me today. I will be back soon with a new classroom update and a freebie 🙂 Big hugs, y’all!
Do you need to be in USA or can little old Scotland join in?
You can join . . . there are always classes who are interested in overseas pals 🙂
Can classes from Canada join in as well?
You bet!
It's the most wonderful time of the year! I love your pen pal pair up! I really appreciate all the work that you put in! Hope you have a great time in Vegas!
Thank you so much . . . this made me giggle 🙂
Is there anyway that I can sign up early? I will be on a missions trip to Ecuador from July 11-22. Please!!!
Email me when you return. I just saw this . . . you took the time to write, so you are in! kelleydolling@gmail.com
I am so excited. I had a great experience last year and would love to do it again this year !
I am looking forward to it…new teaching assignment and new school this year for me, too! Thanks for doing this!
Excited to be a part of this with our kindergarteners!
