Our friend Xolo, pronounced show low, is feeling lonely, and he wonders if you may be feeling lonely, too. Xolo speaks Spanish, is an expert traveler, a guardian, and knows all the paths in the entire world.
Please write a letter to Xolo, telling him about your time at home, your home-school experiences, past travels, and more. You can also ask Xolo questions. Xolo can respond to your letters in English or Spanish, and he can’t wait to share what he has learned as a traveler and a guardian—and about life at the NCMA.
Letters can be mailed to 4630 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699. Attn: Xolo.
¡Hey, niños!
Nuestro amigo Xolo, que se pronuncia shou lou, se siente solo y se pregunta si ustedes también se sienten así. Xolo habla español, es un viajero experto, un guardián y conoce todos los caminos del mundo.
Escríbanle una carta a Xolo y cuéntenle sobre esta época en casa, sus anécdotas en la escuela desde casa, sus viajes realizados, entre otras cosas. Además, pueden hacerle preguntas. Xolo puede responder sus cartas en inglés o en español. Xolo quiere compartir todo lo que aprendió como viajero y guardián, y los detalles de su vida en el NCMA (North Carolina Museum of Art, Museo de Arte de Carolina del Norte).
Pueden enviar sus cartas por correo a 4630 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699. Attn: Xolo.
