Description

Want to become pen pals?
 
"Pen pals" can also be called "pen friends." It's when two people, usually from other countries, write letters to each other. 
 
 
Why become pen pals?
 
It's good writing practice! Many topics that pen pals write about are sentences students learn in school, such as:
  • introducing yourself
  • writing about activities you like to do
  • discussing recent holidays
  • talking about festivals, activities, or events you've been to
  • Asking open-ended questions using the Ws and H (who, what, when, where, why, how)
Letters to a friend are more casual, so it can be a good way to practice less formal English than in school. 
 
It's also a good way for busy students to practice writing in English in a stress-free way. Take your time & write a long or short letter! 
 

 

(Letter reads:

Dear Pen Pal,

Nice to write to you! My name is Miss Ren. I am from the Los Angeles area of the United States of America. I've also lived in Seattle, Seoul, Kanazawa, & Nagoya. I think the speed of Seoul was my favorite, but I have a lot of fond memories of Kanazawa. How about you? What do you like about your current city?

Some of my hobbies include reading, drawing, sewing, and hiking. This past weekend, I hiked with my spouse & mother-in-law. While I'm more of an extrovert, almost all of my hobbies are done on my own. What are your main hobbies? Are you more of an extrovert or an introvert?

Since I was an elementary school student, I've been writing letters to friends & pen pals. Actually, I have a whole shoebox full of letter-writing stationery. Would you like to help me work through my stash?

Please write or type me your response so we can be pen pals!

--Miss Ren
