Welcome Penpals!

On Tuesday Mrs. McEvoy came from CHS to pick up our first penpal letters.  

We asked her all sorts of questions about our new high school buddies.  We can't wait to see what they write back.  

What do you want to learn about your penpal? 
If you're one of our penpals, please leave us a comment!

  1. Kimberly asks, "how old are you?"

    "I want to know if the class is big or small," babbled Ben.

    Caroline roared, "how are you?"

    Suhana thought, "I want to know when their birthdays are."

    Evan B. grinned, "When is your lunch time?"

    "When was your first day of school?" asked Mason.

    Gabrielle said, "I want to know if they paint in school."

  33. I would love to know what your favorite animal and color is! My favorite animal is a dolphin, considering I absolutely love the beach (do you like the beach as well?) and my favorite color is blue. My birthday is January 6th, and I am 14 years old. I have two younger sisters, one that has just turned two, and an eight year old. Do you have any siblings? I also love fashion designing, drawing, painting, and I also love reading.
