Informal Letters

Dear Students,

Thank you indeed for the efforts you are making. I am proud of you all.

Last week you wrote an informal letter about the use of cell phones in school. Now, it's time to learn how to write an informal letter. Open the file on the following link:

Informal Letters

and read the first two pages. Then write a new letter about the same topic according to the format in the file you read.

I wish you the very best,
