Getting to Know You
Name _________________________________ Date ______________
Hello and welcome to English Class! A friendly letter is an excellent way for you to communicate any thoughts and information you’d like me to know as we get the year under way. Please tell me about yourself – your interests, ambitions, family, traditions, favorite foods, least favorite experiences – you get the picture. Remember that this letter is not intended as an invasion of your privacy; write only what you freely wish to share.
Please include your feelings about the subject of English. Use details so I may understand what you wish to tell me. Include your feelings on the required summer reading book as well as your feelings about the book of your choice. Remember to capitalize both titles correctly and italicize them following the rules for capitalizing titles of novels. Use the authors’ names and discuss memorable characters. Consider these questions as you write: What experiences have you enjoyed in previous English classes? In what areas of English would you like to make personal improvements? Which works have you enjoyed reading? What can you suggest we do in English Class this year to help you achieve success? Make sure that you refer to the Friendly letter example on my website mrs-
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me. I hope that you write extensively, follow the correct friendly letter format, and review your letter before you submit it for a grade to make sure it is of top quality with all errors corrected. I look forward to reading your letter and beginning the year together.
