The students at Southside middle school in grade 7 read the book “I’ll always write back“. After the students read this book, they contacted Delia Garrity to see if a penpal project could happen with HELP primary school grade 7.
Southside has approximately 250 students in grade 7. HELP has approximately 60 in grade 7. So the students at southside worked as a team to write letters to send to Uganda, meaning 4 students collaborated on one letter. Then one HELP student wrote one letter back to the team.
We’re inspired by their compassion and desire to connect to others across the world from them. 💛
