MID: Email Exchange w/ Book Discussion Group

[Dorian Garbin <dgarbin@POSTOFFICE.PTD.NET>]

Hello!

I'm conducting a Book Discussion Group during our club period with students
in grades 6 and 7, and I'm looking for a similar group who would be willing
to correspond with them.

I did this last year with a school in Maryland.  The students enjoyed
sharing their thoughts on books they read in the group and outside of
school.  They also shared information about their locale, school, and
personal hobbies and interests.  I also thought we might include short "book
reviews" this time. The students were quite impressed with the speed and
ease of email, and they anxiously looked for replies to their postings every
day.  I have multiple copies of roughly 25 titles, and we all read the same
book and then discuss and do short follow-up activities.

My students do not have individual email accounts, so mail would have to be
sent to me, and I would distribute to the students.  Is anyone interested?

Dorian
