Pen Pal Connection

Recently Team ACE from Bryant University made a connection with three third grade elementary classes from Northern Lincoln Elementary School in Rhode Island. These three classes will write letters to children in Sierra Leone who will write letters back to them. Team ACE put on a presentation to teach the kids about Sierra Leone and how to write pen pal letters. All the students are very excited to communicate with their pen pal! The pen pal connection will help students from both Rhode Island and Sierra Leone to learn about different cultures, traditions, and perspectives!
