Namibian Pen Pals Expand Persell Students’ World View
Persell seventh grader JaLeiya Glover points at a map of the Republic of Namibia during a Zoom session with Mike Lynch and Justin Potter from Educators of America. Persell students took part in a pen pal project with students in the southern African nation.
Students from the Republic of Namibia hold up their letters from their pen pals at Persell Middle School in Jamestown. Throughout the month of March, Johnson and her students have engaged in a pen pal experience with students from Namibia through a collaboration with Erie 2-Chautauqua-Cattaraugus BOCES and Educators of America.
