Dear Jacob,

I wish you a very Happy New Year !!! 🎊 I hope you had a nice Christmas with your family?🎅🎄

My Christmas was very great, everybody from my family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦came to Wissembourg to celebrate Christmas in our House. I got very nice stuff 🎁: You know I am a Lego Star Wars fan and I got the Mos Eisley Cantina and some battle packs😁 (do you now that?) I also got some very nice sneakers👟. What did you get? (You also like Star Wars?). Here in Alsace we have lots of different customs, for example we have the „marché de Noel“, it is a market with stalls in the city center where you can eat 🌮or drink 🍹tasty things like the „Glühwein“🍷(hot wine with flavors) or „Bratwurst“🌭 (sausage). In the German lesson I had the task to explain the Christmas customs in the USA 🇺🇸 , do you also have something like a Christmas Pickle 🥒for the tree? After celebrating Christmas, my parents surprised me and say : „We go to the Maldives 🏝️to celebrate New Year 🎊!!!“. It was a very long journey (like 12 hours flight 🥱). We spent fantastic days with our friends and having fun : snorkeling, enjoying the beach and also getting sunburn🙃. The 31st of December we had a nice pool party and everyone jumped with their clothes in the pool 😜 and we had a big firework 🎇 , it was very funny 😆. How did you spend the New Year’s Eve? Now I am back at school 🏫, the weather is cold 🥶, but no snow❄️ in the moment. What is your favourite subject in school? Mines are Maths 🧮 and Sports 🏈.

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon,

Best Regards from Wissembourg,

Your Friend

Robin 😎

Hy, Bob

I wish you a happy new year .During the Holidays in France I have celebrated Christmas the Orthodox way because my dad are macedonian.

For Christmas eve we share a bread which has a small coin hidden inside. This bread is baked by my Baba (grandma).

Everyone gets a piece, from the oldest in the family to the youngest, Jesus and the house also get a piece.

The one who has the coin inside his peace will have a lucky and successful year.

I have celebrate new year in normandie a region in north of france .

We always have our vacations between Christmas and new year.

During the Christmas break we were in Strasbourg we have seen the huge christmas tree.

Hi Roxana,

I wish you a very happy New Year!

I hope you had a nice Christmas !🎁🎄

In my family, we go to my grandparents' on Christmas Eve and take dinner there with my grandparents, my aunt and uncle and my cousins.

We always put the Christmas presents under the decorated Christmas tree.

When dinner is finished, we have time to play with my cousins. This is my favourite moment, I really enjoy spending time and playing with my cousins Erine and Lucile.

Then at midnight, we celebrate my dad's birthday.

In February, people celebrate Carnival in my region. In my family, we don't do anything special for Carnival, except that we bake donuts with a special family recipe from my great grandmother.

During the next holiday, I will spend time with my friend Lison and I will spend a lot of time drawing in my room...I really love drawing and I also love reading manga.

My favourite subject at school is art and drawing !

I hope to hear from you soon ! Bye, Claire

Happy New year !!!🥳🥳🥳

I hope you had a lovely Christmas?

In Alsace the Christmas festivities are very important. Practically every village has a Christmas market and the villages are all decorated and lit up.

Where I come from, Christmas is a time for the whole family to get together and enjoy each other's company.

In February we celebrate Carnival and there's a cavalcade where everyone dresses up. On Shrove Tuesday we usually come to school dressed up. The culinary tradition at carnival is the donut. I love it....but I don't like dressing up.

Christmas is my favourite because it's a time for sharing and getting together.

On 24 February we'll be on holiday for 2 weeks. At the moment, I don't know what I'll be doing as we're not going skiing this year. My dad has a very important job and he can't get away.

My favourite subjects at school are maths and science.

I hope to hear from you soon.

See you soon, bye

Hi Reanna!

Happy New year !

As my parents are separated, I was first with my father and then with my mother.

At Christmas, I went to Paris to see my best friend Amelie. We watched movies and ate popcorn and hot chocolate, and made m&ms cookies together because we love baking! You too?

On New Year's Eve, I was at my grandparents' in Germany. It's about five to six hours' drive from my home. I go skiing there, because there's lots of snow. I had a great Christmas and got lots of presents. I also turned 13 on January 11, 2024!

I too find it very interesting to have a correspondent in America. Would you like us to write to each other somewhere other than penpal? I'd find it easier. Now for the questions:

Are you learning any French?

When did you have a birthday?

Do you listen to French music like we listen to English Music-if yes,what do you listen to singer?

Whats your favorite school subject ?

Mine are french and german but I like english.

Hope to hear from you soon,

Manon

Hello Kelly how are you, I hope you had a nice Christmas time. As you know I live in Alsace a small region in France, so I would like to tell you about Christmas time in Alsace. From the end of November, the whole of Alsace invites you to celebrate the most beautiful of all festivals. Warm hearts, sweet pastries and Christmas decorations - all this characterizes our Christmas.

There is also a Christmas market in every town. And of course presents on Christmas Eve.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Isaac,

I wish you a very happy new year,

In Alsace, during the Advent period, everything is lit up : the fir trees, the garlands and the houses are decorated. There is also the Christmas market where you can buy lots of things : salami, jam, Christmas cupcakes, meat, decorations…

At home we celebrate Christams at home, we eat foie gras, chestnuts and fries. We open the gifts on the evening of December 24. We buy a tree that we put in the living room, my cat loves playing with it. During the Christmas period? We also go to the Christmas market to buy salami.

For Carnival, we often have to go other cities to celebrate because back home, there aren’t many Carnival activities. So we go somewhere else, there is a parade and they send us candy or chocolate. Otherwise, we can sometimes dress up at school.

For Mardi Gras, we eat donuts, waffles or pancakes.

Another holiday that I like is Easter because we receive small gifts and chocolate.

During my next vacation, I will ony sleep, play video games and do my homeworks.

My favorite subjects are french because I find it interesting even if some people find it strange in the class. I also like maths because I love using my brain and calculating, above all I find it interesting and I like sport, it allows you to let off steam and have fun.

See you soo and have a great vacation !

Hi Gia !

I wish you a happy new year! I hope do you have celebrate it very well ?! I went to my grandparents. They live in Germany, there were lots of fireworks! How this were by you? Was there also lots of noise, fireworks?

I will thank you for your wishes! I'm fine, and you? I live in Wissembourg, it is in Alsace, in France. This town is also a little popular, especially by German tourists, but also by Swiss and Dutch tourists. By us is Strasbourg a very visited city, it has a known cathedral, the European Parliament and it is the European Capital.

How do you celebrate Christmas? By us, on December 1st, we get an advent calendar. It's a calendar, where every day you open a little door and inside there can be a little chocolate or other little surprises, it depends on the calendar... We also have an advent wreath, where during the 4 weeks before Christmas, every sunday you light a candle. In our home, we have a Christmas tree. We decorate it with my family (my sister-my father-my mother). At Christmas, first we go to Christmas Mass, then we come back to our home and prepare food together. After we eat and next we open the gifts. I've get chocolate, a book, a kit, pens and much more. What have you get?

Carnival is also a celebration that I like. It's a day when you can dress up. Do you dress up on this day? Or do you have uniforms at school? We don't have uniforms.

Easter and Christmas are my favorite feasts. And you, what are your favorite feasts? This year, I'd like to go to Italy. Where would you like go?

At my school (Collège Otfried), we have a choir where I singing also. We have also "UNSS", this is a sports club, where you can play badminton, basketball, football, table tennis, boxing and many other things. Last year I did that but not anymore because now I don't have much time... My favorite subject is German, because the teacher is very nice and I like what we learn. The atmosphere in her classroom is cool and relaxing. But I also like other subjects. All my subjects are: German, maths, history and geography, technology, physics and chemestry, music education, physical education, French, English, arts and biology. We have a very busy timetable. We have classes almost every day until 5pm. You too? If not, when do you finish school?

I can't wait to hear from you and I hope you had great holidays!

See you soon !

Chére Caroline O______,

My name is Alexandra Hernandez, I am 13, and I live in the United States in Pennsylvania in the city of Allentown. On the map, you can find me on the right above New York.

Great tourist spots I would recommend consist of Blue Mountain which is an activity resort, or Dorney Theme Park and Wild Water Kingdom which is a water park as well as a park with numerous rides, restaurants, and carnival games. My favorite food is tacos I love to listen to Steve Lacy, as well as other rappers such as Lil Wayne, Drake, YNW Melly, etc. I like to watch YouTube TikTok, or Netflix depending on my mood, and I like to play softball games I like consist of Roblox, and Call of Duty Black Ops. Salisbury Middle School Grades 5-8, Built 1969, Located in USA, PA, Allentown, We are rural, you can see views of a horse farm, 1 elementary school, 1 high school, there are  42 teachers in the MS, and the Class size averages 22 kids, The 8th-grade class has 127 School students and our school total is 473, At the moment.

I have a brother he’s 17

My sister is 7

My brother is 9

And my little sister is 2

I am taking ELA (English Language Arts), Science, Mathematics, and Social Studies which are very important to learn and very impressionable to others. I am currently in student council, I play Softball and am hopefully starting cheerleading soon, and am looking forward to a wonderful year. Something I noticed that is different than our school is Pink October as we have pinkout! I also observed that your classrooms are so much more modern than ours, well as you have a much more modern layout than our school has, I’m looking forward to having a pen pal because I feel it would be great to teach and show someone things that I do and see what they do. Some experiences that were a wild journey that I have had is going to Desales College for a field trip, going to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms as well as going to Camal Back Beach, and going to the New Jersey Beach as well as Kalahari. Have you ever gone to any of these places? In our school, we have a variety of parks such as Laubauch and Devonshire park which have many small attractions and are super local. Do you have many parks? We also have thousands of stores that vary from the Emmaus Market to the Lehigh Valley Mall. Do you have any stores you enjoy going to?  Thank you so much for reading I’m looking forward to hearing back from you!

Ton pote,

(Alexandra Hernandez)

Cheré Noé ,

Mon nom est Brandon, how old are you because I'm 13 years old. Where do you live? I live in Allentown, Pennsylvania. On a map we’d be near the Atlantic shore. There are two places anyone would want to visit. It has to be Time Square and Memorial Park.

The reason why people visit time square is because it's very historic and millions of people go there every year. The reason why people visit Memorial Park is because it’s the largest urban park in texas.

Some of my favorite activities to do is listen to music and sing and/or rap to it. my snap is @notbe3t3e. I also like riding my bike up and down my street. I go to Salisbury middle school. The middle school was built in 1969. We have grades ranging from 5th grade all the way to 8th grade. We are rural, there are views of horse farms. We have 1 elementary school and 1 high school. There are 42 teachers in the middle school. The average class size is 22 kids. The 8th grade class has 127 students. The school has 473 students in it. At the moment I’m taking music class. We have clubs like the one I’m in, it’s called digital aces.  My parents own a catering business and I get to help them with it. J'ai hâte d'avoir de tes nouvelles.

Sincerely,

Brandon

Cher Evan,

Comment vas-tu! My name is Devante Wint, I am 14 years old; I was born on September 23, 2009. I am dark-skinned with dreadlocks, and I attended school at Salisbury Middle School located in Salisbury, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is located far to the east of America, next to New York, and Ohio if you can visualize that. Also, did you know star basketball player Kobe Bryant was born only about 5 hours away from Pennsylvania?! I know fútbol is popular in Italy, but do you guys still play sports like basketball? It’s personally one of my favorite pastimes along with playing video games, and hanging out with friends. Pennsylvania has popular tourist attractions like Crystal Cave, which is a magnificent, fascinating, and beautiful place. It appears as if it is made of pure crystals. I’ve been there once before and it was a memorable experience.

A couple of cool facts about my school is that it was built in 1969. We live in a rural neighborhood with a magnificent view of a horse farm. We have 1 elementary school and 1 high school, both within walking distance from my house, which I find very useful. In America Middle Schools we don’t get to choose our classes until we get to high school. With this in mind, my classes are what our normal classes are here, English Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, and for my special right now we have Music. However, We have tons of clubs, sports, and activities here to take part in. I personally only take part in the basketball team which I’m joining this year. I look forward to learning more about how it is over there. J'ai vu le site Web de votre école, I saw a lot of awesome programs there that I would find interesting to be in! There are even special needs programs like we have at our school, I think that is very empathetic and kind of your school. To answer some of your questions, some of my favorite foods are Sushi, Calamari, and Salmon(I love seafood). Also, just like you, I’m funny and I am loud lol. My French is a little bit rusty but I hope you can understand it. Can’t wait to hear back from you!

Ton pote,

I really like to go shopping and I like to go out and be with friends and family.J'aime Ela. It is my favorite subject and I know how to do It so it’s not that hard for me to do. I live near New York to the north; New Jersey to the east; Delaware and Maryland to the southeast; West Virginia to the southwest, and Ohio to the west. I go to Salisbury Middle school.I am in 8th grade, it was built 1969.It is located in Salisbury Township. We are rural. We have one elementary school and one highschool. We have a view of a horse farm. There are 42 teachers in the middle school and 473 teachers total in all highschool,middle school, and elementary. The average 8th grade classroom has 22 kids, but the average total of 8th graders is 127.

The two places I recommend coming to when you want to visit

Pennsylvania are definitely the most popular places like Bethlehem, Pittsburg, and Gettysburg.ce que je préfère manger, ce sont les pâtes. I love listening to Drake, he is a rapper, and I really like his music. My favorite album Is Take Care and Views.J'aime vraiment faire du shopping because, when I have money I love to spend it and buy new items.J'ai un chien qui s'appelle Bella. We got her in January and we have kept her ever since. She is 8 months old, and I am very happy we kept her.J'ai hâte d'avoir de tes nouvelles.

Cher Antoine,

Hi my name is Tariq. I'm 14. How old are you? Where do you live? I live in Allentown, Pennsylvania. On a map of the U.S. we would be East Coast in-between New York and West Virginia. Two places i recommend visiting here are Hershey Park and Dorney Park. They are both amusement parks with some of the best roller coasters ever. Some of my favorite things to do are play video games and listen to music. I also have four sisters we play alot and argue a lot.

Some things about my school are the name is Salisbury middle school. There are currently 42 teachers and 473 students. We are rural and our middle school has a nice view of a horse farm. We also have 1 high school and 1 elementary school. Some classes I currently have are gym, ELA, math, social studies, and science. Some sports and clubs we have are football, soccer, basketball, and field hockey. Although we are bad at sports. My school football team hasn't won a game in a year. One thing I noticed about your school is that you guys seem to really be into breast cancer awareness. What's that like?

I can't wait to hear back from you!

Chère Amélie,

Hi, my name is Kelly, and I am 13 years old. I have never been to Italy. Have you ever been to the United States or Pennsylvania? How old are you? I live in Bethlehem PA. PA is on the East coast of the US and we live right above New York. If you come to PA or if you already have and haven’t visited these places I think you should visit Dorney Park because its super fun and has a bunch of fun roller coasters and during the last 3 weeks of September and all throughout October they have this thing called the Haunt and its for Halloween and its when a bunch of workers dress up and scare you as your walking around the park. Another place you should visit is Knoebels. It's like Dorney park but it has different rides, and if you like camping there's a place to camp at Knoebels!! My favorite thing to watch is the Sturniolo Triplets. If you don’t know who they are, they are 3 identical brothers that every Wednesday they post a vlog and every Friday they post a car video of them talking about random things or they take suggestions from other fans. I think they are really funny.  I enjoy watching scary movies and watching tv shows too. I also enjoy listening to music. What’s your favorite artist? I also enjoy eating tacos and mac and cheese. What's your favorite food?

I go to Salisbury Middle School, and I am in 8th grade. How about you? Salisbury Middle School is located in Allentown PA. We are Rural and have views of a horse farm. We have 1 Elementary and 1 High School, along with 1 Middle school. There are 42 teachers in this school. There's usually about 22 kids in each class, sometimes less, maybe more. There are around 473 kids in this MS. The reason there's that much is because our 5th grade is with the MS and not the Elementary. I take science, math, social studies and english language arts for my classes. What about you?  I am a cheerleader and I cheer for American football and basketball. What about you?? On your website I noticed that you have a thing called Pink October, and that you dress up in pink on October 20th. I think that's cool because you're supporting breast cancer . I'm looking forward to having you for penpal because I enjoy learning about other people and I like to hear about things others like. And I wanna know about people from other countries. J'ai hâte d'avoir de vos nouvelles!!

Ton potel,

Cher Ben,

My name is Logan. Cómo estás? I am 13 years old. How old are you? I live in Pennsylvania which is along the east coast in between New York and Maryland. Our state looks like a sideways rocket.

The 2 places you should really visit if you decide to come to Pennsylvania is Rossi's. It is an Italian Restaurant, and I really like their spaghetti and pizza. I recommend getting the spaghetti and cheese pizza. What is your favorite pizza? I also recommend getting garlic bread. It is just so good. I also recommend going to Harrisburg which is our state capital. You will be able to learn about our state and how we originated and our history. Some of my favorite things to do include listening to music including Rap and 80’s 90’s music. I also Like to watch the Phillies who are a professional Baseball team. Some sports I love to play include baseball, American Flag football which is you just use flags and do not tackle and basketball. What sports do you like to play?

Some facts about our school are that we are called Salisbury Middle School. The school was built in 1869. This school consists of 5-8th graders. We are located in Allentown, PA. We are Rural. We have views of a horse graze and farm. We have 1 elementary school in our district and 1 high school. There are 42 teachers in the Middle school which we are attending right now 127 8th graders, and 472 total kids in the Middle school. The class average is 22 kids in a class. The class I am taking consists of English,Mathematics,Science and Social Studies. Some clubs we have are golf, archery and many more that you have prolly seen on our website. A club I enjoy doing is golf. I think golf is a very fun sport that many people underrate. Do you have any clubs at your school you attend? Estoy muy interesado en tener un amigo por correspondencia!Something I found interesting on your school page was that your school has many more colors on the outside of your school then ours. After another thing I noticed was that your school logo is very cool. It looks somewhat like ours.1 more thing i noticed about your school page was that it is very limited on your home page. Our page has all of the activities on our home page, but yours looks a bit more organized and unique. ¡No puedo esperar a saber de ti! It would be awesome if you could write your letters in English next time. I have two dogs who are golden retrievers and the other milo is a mix. I can’t remember what breed. My snapchat is logan_kao.

Some lovely places that I would recommend would be Bushkill Falls which is a place where you can walk on bridges and look at beautiful waterfalls. Another great place I recommend is the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia. The Liberty Bell holds plenty of Pennsylvania history. Some of my favorite activities are listening to music, hanging out with my friends, and shopping, I’m also on my school baton twirling team, what are some of your favorite activities? j'ai hâte d'avoir de tes nouvelles!

I go to Salisbury Middle School. The grades go from 5th to 8th, and the building was constructed in 1969 and is located in Salisbury township. we are rural, and depending on what classroom you’re in, you can see the horses.

In the middle school, there are 42 teachers, 473 students, and 127 kids in the 8th grade class, and the class average is 22 students.

Chere Mary Dzumefo,

Hi! My name is Jolene, I am 13 years old. How old are you? I have never been to Italy. Have you ever visited the United States or Pennsylvania? I live in Allentown Pennsylvania. We live on the middle Atlantic coast and Pennsylvania is in between New York and Ohio. We live in Salisbury which is a small town in Pennsylvania and  is located in Allentown. If you were to visit Pennsylvania you should go to Dorney Park which is an amusement park with many roller coasters,  a water park and even a Halloween haunt! Another place you should visit is the Lehigh Valley mall. This mall has many stores while being able to be inside and/or outside! One of my favorite activities to do would be playing volleyball,basketball,softball and cheer. My favorite food is chicken alfredo and I love listening to music, and watching movies. My favorite movie is “The Visit” which is a horror movie!

I go to Salisbury Middle School. We have grades 5-8. Our school was built 1969, Located in Allentown Pennsylvania. We are Rural, we have views of horse farms,and lots of grass areas. We have 1 elementary school,and 1 high school. We have about 42 teachers in the MS building and our Class size averages around 22 kids.

Cher Carl,

I'm doing well! I am 14 years old.

I live in Pennsylvania, on the east side of the United States. Ohio is on the west side of us and New York is on the east side.

If you come to PA you should visit Hershey Park or Six Flags, they are both amusement parks but Hershey is my favorite out of the two because I'm hungry right now.

Some things I enjoy are video games, like Minecraft, and my PlayStation as well. One restaurant I like to eat at is Wingstop. You probably know about that place since they expanded there in twenty nineteen. Another restaurant I eat at is Taco Bell, they (obviously) serve tacos, burritos, nachos, and spicy fries.

I go to SMS, Salisbury Middle School, the grades in this school are 5th to 8th. We are currently learning cursive.

Our middle school was built in 1969 and it's been running ever since, it's located in Allentown, PA and we are rural.

There's a horse farm right behind our school. during gym, we get startled by the horses neighing because we never expect it.

There's also a Salisbury elementary school. We left that school and came to the middle school 4 years ago today and next year we’re going to Salisbury high school.

Anyway, there are 42 teachers in the middle school, and they’re all very hardworking.

There are 22 students in each class period and 127 in the entire grade. If you were to add this amount, to the number of kids in the school's entirety you’d get 473 total students!

The classes I'm currently taking are social studies, math, science, ELA (English language arts), and gym/PE (physical education).

The clubs I currently know about are the student council, ski club, and Project Wonder. I know there's more but I need to learn or participate in the school clubs.

I’ve also noticed some things on your school website, it has a cool counter at the bottom that shows how many students are online and how many total have visited, there are way more links to go to on your website, and I also like how you can change the font size!

Ton ami,,

Cheré Elise,

My name is Rylee, and I'm 13 years old. J'espère que tu vas bie! I love your cat, it's so cute! I also have a black cat named Sushi.I live in Allentown PA. If you have Insta you can follow me, @rylee18100. Allentown is in the United States on the East coast in between New York and New Jersey. When people come to my city they usually go to the amusement park called Dorney Park which has a bunch of roller coasters, and during halloween they do this thing called “The Haunt '' where there's a bunch of haunted houses. Another place people visit which is super popular is Musikfest which is held during the summer. It usually takes place during the first 2 weeks of August. There’s a bunch of tents where people sell stuff, but mainly people come to hear people singing. Some of my favorite things are listening to music. Some of my favorite artists are Lana Del Rey, SZA, Frank Ocean, and The Weeknd. I also love watching the Sturniolo Triplets. If you don’t know who they are, they are triplets on youtube who make really funny car videos and they do vlogs too. They also have a podcast which is pretty cool! What are some of your favorite things to do? Do you like music? If so, who's your favorite artist?

I go to Salisbury Middle School and I'm in 8th grade. I noticed that your school looks bigger than mine. In our middle school we have grades 5-8. Our school was built in 1969 located in Salisbury which is a smaller part of Allentown. Your website for the school looks really cool by the way! We are Rural and we have views of a horse farm. We have 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 highschool. One other thing I noticed was that your school building looks super modern! Overall we have 42 teachers in the middle school. Our class averages with about 22 kids and the whole 8th grade is 127 kids. Including every grade our school has 473 kids. One of the classes I'm taking right now is FCS which stands for “Family Consumer Science.” This class is where we learn about home economics, like doing laundry, how to budget your money, and cooking. It’s really interesting. In our middle school we have a bunch of clubs such as the interact club. Interact club is where you help clean up the school or help plan formals and activities. We also have many sports like basketball, American football, soccer, twirling, field hockey, etc. I play basketball, this is my first year. I’m looking forward to having a pen pal because I get to learn more about you and where you live! I’m so excited to hear back from you!

Ton pote,

Rylee.

Hi, my name is Julian, and I am 13 and about to be 14 years old. I have never been to Italy. Hai mai visitato gli Stati Uniti o la Pennsylvania prima?  How old are you? I live in Allentown. Two places that people would usually visit in Pennsylvania are the cities because there are a lot of things you can be able to see and do there. The other place is Philadelphia and the unique place there is the baseball stadium where the Phillies played at.

I go to Salisbury Middle School. I'm taking math classes, ELA classes, Social studies classes and science classes. We have clubs like Interactive club that host events. Then  there is archery where you shoot a bow. We also have a SMS live club and SMS live is a morning announcement that tells us about the news that is happening like sport events, lunch and other side things. I'm looking forward to having a pen pal because it is interesting to talk to someone that isn't in the same country as me. I can't wait to hear back from you.

Il tuo amico,

Julian

Cher Tony,

Je m'appelle Isaac, It’s a pleasure to meet you and I’d like to ask you where you live and what it’s like there. I live in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and there are many places you might like to visit, one of them is Dorney Park, Dorney is an amusement park with several different rides and in my opinion, an enjoyable place to go with friends and family, another place is Ocean City Maryland, OC, Maryland is a very nice place to visit for vacation and it is a very nice beach, in my opinion. Some of my favorite activities are baseball, snowboarding, and football. I am a very big Philadelphia Phillies fan and always watch their games. I also practice this sport.

The school where I go to school is l'École intermédiaire de Salisbury or SMS for short. Salisbury has a primary and secondary school and the middle school has grades 5-8 and was built in 1969. The middle school also has a horse farm and the college has 42 teachers and 473 students, with an average of 22 children per year. my class, 8th grade, which is the class I'm in, has 127 students and four teachers. The classes I am taking are ELA, Social Studies, Science, and Math. I also play baseball, as I said in the first paragraph. I look forward to meeting you and can't wait to hear from you!

Cher Jocelyn R.,

Hi, comment vas-tu. I'm Isaac Mokua. You may be wondering how old I am. I'm 13 years old, and I live in Salisbury, Pennsylvania. If you don't know where Pennsylvania is, Pennsylvania is quite big compared to places like New Jersey or New York, but if you look at America on the globe, you'll be able to see Pennsylvania on the right edge of America by the Oceano Atlantico. If you ever visit Pennsylvania, the first place anyone must visit is definitely Philadelphia (the city specifically). It has some of the best street food, and depending on where you go, there are nice people. Philly is diverse and has a lot of culture around it. Secondly, you have to visit Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh is a very wonderful and bright place at night. Pittsburgh contains very similar things to Philadelphia, but Pittsburgh is a little bit on the downside compared to Philadelphia. Getting past that, some of my favorite things to do are definitely listening to music while I read or playing games. There's just something about having music with you that's very calming, depending on what you listen to. The last fun little fact is that I love cultures and experiencing them; it's quite interesting to learn about them too.

I got to Salisbury Middle School, and they have some really nice clubs and school-related activities. My school (Salisbury Middle School) is a very basic American school, but one thing that is really great about it is its school events and any time we have holiday breaks or even football games, which is awesome, especially if you are interested in them. The school is quite old, built in 1969. We have rural views of a horse farm, with 1 elementary school and 1 high school, with around 42 teachers in the middle school. Our class size averages 22 kids. I wish I had taken special classes, but Other than regular classes like social studies, science, and Ela, the only special class I take is advanced math and specials. My favorite classes definitely has to be Math and science. Clubs are a big thing at my school, but I don't partake in many school activities; when I'm really interested in them, I do them, just like our PJAS club, which is just a club that deals with making a science fair project and then having to present it eventually to a judge. Other than that, I do not do much, but if my school had a volleyball team, I would join immediately.I have to say that Volleyball is my favorite sport. I've heard and seen a lot from your school, and it looks so big. I wish our school was as big as you, but other than that, you guys have an amazing courtyard with a bunch of basketball courts. Your school's interior is really interesting and very different from ours; even the seats are different! It's crazy how different our schools are. I really look forward to having a pen pal because of the things we could have an interest in and may have a good connection with. It's really interesting that we could talk about our different cultures or even experiences. J'ai littéralement hâte d'avoir de vos nouvelles! This is a really interesting thing me and my class are doing, and pen paling is something I've been really interested in doing, and I finally get to do it.

Sincèrement Ton ami,

Isaac Mokua

Cheré Angelica,

My name is Damion, and I am 14 years old. Have you visited the United States before, or even Pennsylvania? I live in Salisbury Township, but a little closer to Allentown, Pennsylvania. Where do you live? If you would like to find me on a map, you have to look at the East Coast of the United States, not on the coast, but still relatively close. My favorite things to do are, go bowling, go biking, and play CS2. I also have a dog!

If you were to ever come to Pennsylvania, there are quite a handful of activities to do, for example, I haven’t visited these, but there is the Flight 93 Memorial. The Flight 93 Memorial is the only plane that didn’t hit a building in the terrorist attacks of 9/11, because of civilians who saved possibly thousands of lives. Another thing to go visit is the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The museum holds a large variety of artwork ranging from the ancient days, to modern day. What are some of your favorite things to do? Our school holds many clubs like archery, ski club, interact club and lots of other fun activities. What are some clubs or activities your school runs or sets up? I also saw that you guys did a breast cancer awareness activity for October! I saw that you have clear stairwells, which is very modern compared to our school. Our school is in a rural location, we have a view of horse stables from most of the classrooms, we have 473 students in our school and have grades 5-8th in the middle school, our highschool has 9-12th. I can't wait to hear back from you, stay safe mon ami! Sincèrement,

Ton Pote,

Chère Beatrice,

My name is Gia, and I am 13 years old. Happy late birthday! Comment vas-tu? I live in Allentown, Pennsylvania in a township called Salisbury. If you look at the United States on a map, we are in the northeast under New York. I also have a 10-year-old brother! I've always wondered what it's like to have a sister. A tourist here might visit Hershey Park. This park is based on where Milton Hershey made the first Hershey’s chocolate bars. There are a lot of rollercoasters, but there are also family-friendly rides! In addition, people would enjoy visiting Pennsylvania’s sports stadiums. The Eagles American Football stadium, 76ers basketball stadium, and Philadelphia Phillies baseball stadium are all right next to each other! I have been to the Phillies stadium a few times, and it is a really exciting and fun environment for Philadelphia baseball lovers like myself! What places can tourists visit near you? Additionally, I love playing softball. I play year-round on a tournament team called the Outlaws. As well as that, Dorney Park is really fun! It is a small local amusement park. During Halloween time, people dress up as monsters and scare you. There are also haunted houses you can walk through! In my free time, I also like to read, just like you! For Halloween, I am dressing up as Nick Castellanos, and my friend is dressing up as JT Realmuto. They are Phillies baseball players. Do you celebrate Halloween? Also, I am 50% Italian, and my family likes celebrating it! We have Pasta Sunday almost every Sunday. During this, we invite over friends and family. My dad cooks spaghetti, and we also eat salad, garlic bread, and desserts!

I go to Salisbury Middle School, and it was built in 1969. We have grades 5-8, and there is one elementary school and one high school. Our school is located in a rural area, so we see views of forests and horses from our windows! In the middle school, we have 42 teachers, 127 eighth-grade students, and 473 total students. Our class sizes average about 22 kids. What is your school like? I noticed that your school is made with a lot of glass, and it is modern-looking. I also noticed that your lockers look a lot different than ours! I am taking English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, and Algebra 1. We also have specials that include STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), music, FACS (Family And Consumer Science), Art, and Physical Education/Health. I also am in a Gifted class. What classes do you take? We have a lot of clubs. SMS Live is our biggest club, and they put on a show every morning that broadcasts school, community, and sports news. I participate in the Student Council. We plan spirit weeks and other school events. I am also in the Interact Club. In this club, we help out around the community, clean up the school, run a school store, and plan school events, like dances! I noticed your school celebrates Pink October! We have a Pink-Out day as well! What clubs do you have, and what clubs are you in? I can’t wait to learn more about you and your life in another country! I love learning about new people, and I love getting to talk to people with different personalities. J'ai hâte d'avoir de tes nouvelles!

Ton ami,

Gia
