Hi Student X,
Wow! Great job. Thanks for your proposal. I haven't seen such an
organized and well done proposal in quite a while. I hope you are
enjoying your time as a Gen www.Y student. You should realize that
with this sort of project, you not only have an opportunity to impact
the lives of the students at Centralia, but also in a school somewhere
in France or perhaps Québec!
I have a few suggestions which I hope you will find helpful. Some,
I already inserted in the body of your proposal. They are in all
caps and enclosed in brackets.
Remember, you are not required to take any particular action based
on my comments. Whether you do depends on you and your Gen www.Y
teacher.
First, your title and objectives are very well stated. I have no
suggestions for you.
Your materials list looks good, but I did add a Web address for
another source for possible "KeyPals". Its probably good
to have more than less information in this case. This is the hardest
part of your project. That is, finding another classroom of students
who would like to correspond with your French students at Centralia.
Good luck with this.
One gentle reminder to have your spelling checked before you publish.
Its important.
Your procedures are very well done. I would just suggest that you
consider that you mightneed to have a structure for the KeyPal students
for their correspondence. For instance, how often are they required
to write? What sort of information must they include? Will you take
a class picture and send it as an enclosure to the other class?
(I would suppose to do this you would need some sort of parental
permission.) Talk this over with your partner teacher and get some
ideas. One way this may fail is if students don't keep up with their
end of the correspondence.
One other thing is how you might match students up between the
classes. Talk this over with your partner teacher as well.
I have no suggestions for your Assessments strategies. You have
done very well!! Great job and good luck with finding a classroom
with which to correspond.
Mrs. Whannell
