Operation
Operation Pen Pal Project
Assigned by Mr. Botherit, Ashbury English Teacher
Assignment Description
Your mission, if you chose to accept it, will be to converse with students at the rival high school as part of a mandatory English assignment. What you write is up to you but keep in mind that this assignment is ongoing and will continue through the entire school year. The goal of this assignment is to create self awareness, friendships, and the Joy of the Envelope. No text messages or emails, please.
Warning: Although your letters will be completely confidential, participation will count toward your final grade.
Field Note #1
Although this assignment seems harmless, you never know who your pen pal will turn out to be.
Field Note #2
Pen pals may want to meet. While a face to face meeting is not mandatory, it will change the course of this assignment. Keep in mind that not everyone is who they claim to be.
Field Note #3
While pen pals are not required to do anything for each other, pen pals may choose to participate in certain secret assignments which could lead to such illegal activities as calling in false reports, fire alarms, breaking into and stealing cars, skipping school and other activities which could lead to classes and exams being postponed.
Field Note #4
Pen pals who issue ominous warnings and threats should be watched carefully. Pen pals who receive such letters should take caution when deciding on how to respond to such pen pals. Refer to field note #1 as to whether or not said pen pal is really should be trusted. When in doubt, consult friends as they may be able to plan additional secret assignments to uncover the identity of ominous pen pal and foil their plans.
Field Note #5
Enjoy Operation Pen Pal Project and The Year of Secret Assignments.
Look for The Murder of Bindy Mackenzie the followup novel by Jaclyn Moriarty.
