Dear Nelly,
Thanks for your e-mail. My students will be
sending their e-mails soon, but not all at the same time. The answers
to your sustainability questions will be in English.
So
sorry about Paul's disappointment: it's my fault. Kaylana dropped
French in February, and I forgot to tell you. I will ask Matt Huang to
write to Paul (I don't think Matt has gotten any letters from your
students yet, has he?) Once we're settled into e-mail, I think
everything will be easier.
What is the exact URL of your class's website/blog?
We'd really like to see it, but still have had no luck finding it on
our own. I'm not sure if maybe you sent it as an attachment, but it
didn't come through.
Thanks again,
Katherine

Have any of your students received our e-mails? Students are
writing one paragraph in French about their sports and activities, and
one paragraph in English with answers to the sustainability questions
you asked. I hope this is OK. If you'd like me to collect their
responses in some other way, I'd be glad to do that.
Hope you've had a good weekend! Is the volcanic ash noticeable in
Lardy, or was it? Some students had extended cross-cultural visits, due
to the airport delays, and though very expensive for someone, there
were some positive results, too.
Last week my 8th graders went to a French restaurant for a field
trip! They spoke French quite a bit with our serveur, who was very
patient and kind to them. Two of the chaperones were Mr. and Mrs.
Giatzis, who hosted Julie Mathon and her family for a lovely evening
about a year ago. We all wish the Mathon family well, and hope there
may be more visits between our penpals in the future!
A bientot, Nelly,

Hi
Nelly,
How are you? It has been a
while since we last spoke. I wanted to let you know that I sent off
another set of hand-written letters in the mail today. Your students
and the students of your collegues should be
getting them within the next couple of weeks. We discussed writing
through email, however my school does not give the students their own
email accounts, and all email websites are blocked from school. Some of
them don't have computers or internet at home,
and so we realized that it was going to be quite difficult for many of
them. We have spent the last several weeks preparing for an end-of-year
exam that each student will take starting next Monday, and so we have
not yet had the chance to look over the questionnaire
you sent us a while back. We will not see the students next week as
they take the exams, but I should be able to discuss the questionnaire
with them the week after. I'm not sure what the schedule is in France,
but we are nearing the end of the school year.
After exams next week, we only have 3 weeks left, so I don't believe we
will be able to get another set of letters off to you before the end of
the year. Anyways, I hope you are doing well, and I look forward to
hearing from you soon.
Take care,
Erin McGinnis
It's World animal day today! You may have seen the work of the 5th Chasles about it.
