Introduction
In this era of technology, we :tvfFL teachers are spoilt with an excellent array of resource material.
Interactive CO-Roms, DVDs, Internet sites ... you name it, we use them all. The main
aim
of all
this is that, one day, our pupils will be able to communicate with other :tvfFL speakers through
our chosen language. In my own classes, this 'one day' is now.
This,
we do, through pen-pal
correspondence.
My experience has shown me that, despite regularly introducing a variety of resources into my
classes, rarely a class begins without a pupil asking 'Have our letters arrived yet?' 'Noch nicht'
is met with disappointment whereas 'Ja' is met with great excitement and delight My pupils are
unwaveringly eager to reply. This may seem like a daunting task to the less-confident or the time-
strapped teacher but ...
For the teacher,
German Pen Pals Made Easy:
+
Does not require fluency
+
Is time-saving -little or no preparation is required
+
Links
with the KS3 Programme of Study
+
Has inherent cross-curricular links to geography, art and ICf
+
Supplements, consolidates and revises course work
For the pupil,
German Pen Pals Made Easy:
+
Is easy to follow. The method used is gap-filling as opposed to giving
pupils
the daunting
task of beginning with a blank page
+
Is realistic. The pupil realizes that German can be used for real-life communication and not
just in an artificial situation
+
Instils confidence. They can communicate effectively at a basic level
+
Helps foster positive attitudes towards foreign language learning
+
Facilitates intercultural understanding. The pupil can learn about German culture through
a German peer
+ ...
and of course, it is fun and a wonderful way to make a new friend. (I should know as I
have had the same two pen pals for over 25 years!)
