Theresa,
I saw your message. It might be a good idea to tell people
how old you are. Penpals like to choose someone their own age,
or about the same age.
Good luck,  Terry

Hi my name is Enrique Rivera, but my friends call me Rick.  I am 11 years 
old, but I'm going on to 12.  You probably do not want to hear about my 
age, but I'll tell you anyways.  I am not good at spelling, but I am very 
funny.  At least that's what most of my friends think.  I have lots of 
friends.  I don't have a girlfriend, because I turned most of them down.  
I do  like girls, I mean I don't have coodies or anything. Well good bye. 
             P.S.If you are wondering, I am a boy in sixth grade.
             Sincerely,
             Rick Rivera

Thanks Iain, We'll look forward to hearing from you. We can set up 
something I am sure and maybe a couple of my kids could talk to more than one of your students. Have fun on the vacation. We are deep in snow
and envying those of you who are having summer. Enjoy while you can.

Hello Sarah,
Earlier this month, you were kind enough to write to me:

JW> I saw your letter and thought I would reply.
JW Though I am only in grade five
JW>and am nine years old. How old are your children ?

Well, I have six children. Naomi is 23, and works for an Auckland
TV station making children's TV programs.
Matthew is 21 and is a musician. For Christmas, he gave me a
present of 7 songs that he recorded. He hopes to release them
as a record.
Keith is 18 and has just finished school. He has a job this
year working in a shop, but wants to play music too.
Clare is 15 and goes to Carmel College on Auckland's North Shore.
Ruth is 13 and also goes to Carmel.
Emily is my Elementary student, and she will be 8 this April.

JW>I really don't now what to write about to a teacher

That's OK, you are doing fine. I am not a teacher - I work
for IBM, the computer company.
JW>What is it like in Auckland New Zeland ?

It is quite hot. We have been going to the beach for a swim most
days, as it is early Summer here. Auckland is the largest city
in New Zealand, with lots of great beaches.

Hello to all of you fifth graders.  I'm a speech/language pathologist working in Leeds Elementary School in Northampton, Massachusetts; however, I use SpaceMet from my modem at home.  It looks like your modem is working well.  
     It's about 35 degrees here today and we have about 6 inches of slushy snow on the ground.  But in a couple of weeks it will be time for our Winter Vacation and my family and I are heading down your way, to Ocala.  And, of course, we've planned a trip to Disneyworld.
     Write back and let us know how the weather is down there now.  If you want to locate my school on a map you'll have to look in the western part of Massachusetts, right along I-91, halfway between the Vermont and Connecticut borders.

Hi folks:
 
Thanks for the replies.  I passed them on to Mrs. Tobias' class and 
expect them to send some new stuff in the coming days.  We've had 
a busy January with lots of snow and ice and yesterday, high winds. 
 We arrived at school to find the power knocked out.  It didn't turn 

on until after 9 a.m.  It made the start of the day _REAL_ interesting. 
 Your information about Virginia really helped the fifth graders in 

Mrs. Markus' class.  The personal information really brightened up 
the same old cold facts from all of the books.  If you ever have any 
questions about our state or would like to try a special project, 
ask away....
 
We look forward to hearing from you again soon.
 
Do you have a computer in the classroom or do you have to go to a 
lab?  I think you told me once and now I've forgotten.....
 
Have a great weekend!
 
Peace,
--Phil

Dear Nikki Morrison

        My name is Christina Macpherson. I am going into Year 5
of primary school here in Australia this year. Our school year
starts on Tuesday, February 2. We have four terms of about ten
weeks each.I live less than 100 metres from the school gate. I
like maths and craft and I enjoy most school sports.

        I read in your message that you liked soccer and
basketball. I like soccer a lot. I got a new soccer ball for
Christmas. I want to learn to play tennis. Most of my relatives
play tennis or squash. I'm not really a baseball lover but I
did play T-ball (easy softball) last summer.

        I see you have a horse. We have enough space for one but
our gardens are very special and take up most of the yard. I go
riding on my auntie's farm.

        I like swimming just like you do. I don't like the
races at school carnivals. I lose because I am tiny. I just swim
for fun.

        This week my dad took my brother, my visiting cousin &
I to a covered pool to swim. that's good because we don't have
to wear lotions and worry about sunburn.

        I turn ten on March 1st. I have one brother named Tim.
He is eight years old on the 23rd of January. I'd prefer a
sister but Mum and Dad say they have enough kids.

        Ilike your list of pets. With a horse and three sheep
do you live on a small farm.?

        For pets, I have two cats and ten peachfaces. The cats'
names are Misty and harold. Misty is eleven and she's really
sick at the moment. She may die of old age soon. Harold is
good. He is a really funny cat. He's a part Russian Blue. In
case you don't know what peachfaces are, they are small
Australian parrots. They have two shades of green for their
bodies and a sort of pinkish face. They are a tiny bit bigger
than a canary. What types are your birds?

        I am blonde and have long, straight hair that goes
halfway down my back. I am 128 centimetres tall. My mass is
right on 26 kilograms at the moment. I am short and weigh less
than most kids in my class.  That's 5 foot 3 inches and about
60 pounds. My dad said to tell you because you don't live in a
metric country.

        My dad is a teacher. My Mum is a bank teller.

        I have my own computer but I prefer to use dad's big
one. It is easier to use on the BBS. Do you have your own?

        I found Salem on the map a few days ago when I wrote
to another person at your school. You are about 1100
kilometres from Disneyland. What's it like in Salem? Here, it
is very hot at the moment. We have about 15 days a year where
it stays over thirty degrees all day. This is one of them. We
measure temperature in Celsius. Thirty degrees here is about
85F.

        Please write soon.

Sounds like a great holiday, I haven't even been overseas before... I haven't been to anywhere "spectacular" before but I'll give it a go...
In the easter holidays in 1991, my family went to Canberra 'cause my dad had a business trip... On the way my dad happened to think the speed limit on the Princes Hwy was 75kmh but it was 60... Didn't get fined but close enough though... When we arrived we went to the caravan park and slept... At canberra we went to places like
Questacon and the war memorial and the australian palament house... Anyway... I enjoed it and that is the main thing...

Ok, hearing from you soon, Shannon Finegan
