Assignment 1

Welcome to PenPal News, a place on the web where you will read, share and discuss news with a penpal. Your classes in Vancouver and Taiwan have been matched, and you have been assigned one or two penpals. Over the next six weeks, you will be writing to each other, learning about news events occurring in your penpals’ location.

Here’s your first assignment:

1. Introduce yourself to your penpal. Write about the neighborhood where you live and things you like to do after school. (Please write at least a paragraph.) If there’s one thing your penpal should know about where you live, what is it?

2.

STUDENTS from Taiwan:
- Read this article about Vancouver.
- Tell your penpal about two things you found interesting or were surprised to learn about where they live.
- Write two questions you have about the place where your penpal lives.
