Dear Pen Pal Family:
We are the Telfor Family. Dad is 49 years old, Mom is 48 years old, Katie is 15 years old in Tenth Grade, Matthew is 11 years old in Fourth grade and Claire is 7 years old in First Grade. This is the second year Matthew and Claire have attended Georgetown Elementary School. We live about one mile from school. We also have a little fluffly black and white puppy named Romeo. Romeo is eight months old. Our family likes to go camping in the summer and snow ski in the winter. Matthew loves to bowl and golf. Claire loves to play softball and soccer. Katie loves to hiphop dance and listen to music. The kids all love to do things on the computer! One of our favorite foods is pizza. Please write soon all about your family.

Dear Pen Pal,
Hello from Michigan! This is my first letter to someone outside of my state (other than my grandparents who spend the winters in Florida).
My name is Brianna, and I am in the 5th grade. My school is called Georgetown Elementary, and it is only 3 years old. I have attended that school since it opened. Next year, I will go to Baldwin Street Middle School, where my Mom works. I like my school now, and I have lots of good friends there.
When I am not at school, I like to play outside with my neighbors. We play Four Square, and Kick the Can. During the summer, when we can stay out late, we also play ghosts in the Graveyard – but it has to be dark to play that!
It will be Spring Vacation soon from school, and I will be flying to Florida to see my Grandparents. I am very excited to see them and their dog. He is so cute!
I will be very excited to get a letter from you!
Brianna

Hello Pen Pal!
My name is McKenna, and as you know, I am from America. I live in Michigan; only about 20 minutes from one of the Great Lakes (Lake Michigan). Our state is shaped like a mitten!
I am in 8th grade at Baldwin Street Middle School. I absolutely love cheerleading! I compete on our competitive cheerleading team and work out at a gym during the off season. I play many other sports too. I also play tennis for our school, and I played second doubles this year. I also run track at school.
When I am not at school, I like to hang out with my friends, text people, check my FaceBook, and shop. I also LOVE to read, and my Mom says I devour books.
I can’t wait to meet you!
McKenna

Dear Guo Guo Wei,
Hi my name is Tom and I am 7 years old in the 2nd grade at Georgetown Elementary. I live with my Mom, Dad and brother Josh in a house. My brother is 12 and in 6th grade. I also have 2 pets, a dog named Scout and a rabbit named Soldier. My favorite things to do are draw, play baseball and play with my friends. I am learning to play the guitar right now, it’s really fun but kind of hard. Pretty soon it will be baseball season, that is my favorite sport! What do you like to do? Do you have any brothers or sisters or pets? What is your favorite sport? I can’t wait to learn more about you. Hope to hear from you soon.
Your penpal,
Tom
