Authentic Community Audience for Middle School Authors

A touching story of a middle school class writing to senior citizens in a nursing home and then visiting their very appreciative audience. This story is an important social-emotional learning opportunity that can easily be replicated.  Incredible opportunity for teachers to learn more about what their students are thinking and feeling.
