The Classroom Connection

Celebrate NJ! - Non-Profit - www.celebratenj.org

We want to reach kids in classrooms in all 50 states, to be part of our Classroom Connection program, a letter-writing exchange that connects students to each other, to the world around them and to their own hopes and dreams.

    this will be a great opportunity for kids who are unable to travel to learn life from another side of the world/culture/religion/or just common neighborhood.

    My students are writing to other children in another part of our state, enhancing their understanding of social studies and practicing their writing skill. Thanks Celebrate NJ

    Students really had an exciting time working on the 8th grade project. My students who were selected to attend NJPAC had a enjoyable experience

    What a great program to use as a tool to keep our children engaged and happy to learn. I wish I had something like this when I was in school. The teacher and student testimonials speak for themselves. In the face of budget cuts and teachers scrounging for resources, this is a great cause to help support our local teachers and our children (our future!).

    This organization connects classrooms to each other through the (almost) lost art of letter writing. Bravo Celebrate NJ!

    The students loved writing to and hearing from their pen pals. They didn't mind learning the mechanics of writing when it was for such a interesting and worthwhile purpose. Students at all levels did their best work for their pen pals. We even got to videoconference with some students:)

    All of my social studies participated last year! The students loved writing to and hearing from their pen pals. They didn't even mind learning the mechanics of writing when it was for such a interesting and worthwhile purpose. Students at all levels tried to do their best work to present to their pen pals. We even got to videoconference with some students:)
