5th graders connect with pen pals in Uganda

Kelly Kruzel and her fifth-grade students at Kate Walter Barrett Elementary School in Stafford County are participating in a video pen pal project with students from across the globe.

Her students visit weekly with students at the Green Valley Child Care Primary School in Uganda.

ā€œWe started meeting with Teacher Ronnie, Tugavune Ronnie Wilson, once-a-week for an hour on Fridays,ā€ said Kruzel. ā€œThe first time they talked to us, it was the first time many had seen a computer open. They were completely shocked and wouldnā€™t talk to me or answer our kids at first.ā€
