My 4th grade class is learning about Russia for our school's Multicultural Fair. I teach in a rural area on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. I have tried several times to contact schools to be pen pals for this school year. If anyone has any suggesstions as to how I can find Russian pen pals I would appreciate a message. Thank you!

Hi, My name is Shelley and I live in Iowa. There is a public school here that is in communication with a Russian school.... I will give you the teacher's email address---he teaches 7th grade there...you can email him and tell him you would like to find pen pals for your 4th grade class...and I'm sure he could set that up...I think his class is already doing that with the class here in Iowa, but he could put you in touch with another teacher there..good luck and let me know what happens....here is his address---- larin@ext.dvgu.ru -------Sincerely,Shelley
