Announcing: New PenPal Topics from Oxford University Press

We couldn’t be more excited to start 2020 off with two new PenPal topics designed and built with leading global publisher Oxford University Press! ​

Join ‘Your Goals for 2020’

Your Goals for 2020 connects students from around the world to learn about and discuss motivation and goal setting as they prepare their goals for 2020. This topic includes collaborative lessons to help students learn about motivation, SMART goals, and goals across different areas of life including health, study, and personal finance. This topic is recommended for students ages 13 and up.

Join the Mammals Topic

The Mammals topic connects students from around the world to learn about and discuss different types of mammals found in their communities. In this topic, students learn about land mammals, aquatic mammals, and flying mammals and discuss the characteristics that make each mammal unique. This topic is recommended for students ages 8 and up.

Join 'Transportation Then and Now'

Join 'Homes Around the World'

In addition to the ‘Your Goals for 2020’ and ‘Mammals’ PenPal topics, two additional topics designed and built in collaboration with Oxford University Press will continue to be available through May 2020. These two topics, ‘Homes Around the World,’ and ‘Transportation Then and Now’ connect students from around the world to learn together and discuss important cultural themes.
