Hi everybody,
last school year I innitiated a postcrossing-project for my 7th graders where we all exchanged postcards. The class found out that it’s not too complicated after all to sit down and write a few lines in English. They also found out what the little thing is called which is needed to send the card from A to B (some of them didn`t even remember the German word for stamp - thanks, smartphone…).
What I also remember is that they were so, so proud to, at some point, receive a postcard which was written to them personally instead of to the entire class.
So - since I am teaching 7th graders again (in Germany this means that they are between 12 and 13 yrs old) I thought I might relaunch the project, maybe with a little change here and there - but basically I hope to get them to write again.
In three weeks we have one week off here in Bavaria. But after that I would like to talk to the class about my idea- and now it is your turn: Could you send us postcards so that by the time I try to convince my class I can stand in front of my students, holding postcards in my hand which have been written especially for them? And maybe on these postcards let us know if they can write back to you so that they have their first concrete addresses? I don’t have any special wishes - just write about whatever you feel like.
Our address is:
Adolf-Reichwein-Schule
c/o Eva Sünderhauf / 7b
Schleifweg 39
90409 Nürnberg
Germany
This is a public address, and I understand it’s being posted on a public forum.
Thanks so much!
Eva
