Explaining the rules of letter writing
We write informal letters to friends and relatives
we know well, or to people our own age. An informal letter should include:
·
an informal greeting such as Dear/
Hi + person’s name or just Hi!
·
An introduction with opening
remarks, e.g. How are you? I’m fine but I’ve been really busy, etc.
and your reason for writing.
·
A main body containing the main
points of the letter.
·
A conclusion with closing
remarks, e.g. That’s all for now. Write back soon.
·
An informal ending, e.g. Love
from/ Lots of love/ See you soon/ Best wishes/ Yours + your name or just
your name.
Each paragraph should have a topic sentence followed
by appropriate supporting sentences.
Informal letters should be written in an informal
style. That is : everyday vocabulary (It’s taken me a while to … ), short
forms (I’d, I’ve, there’s), colloquial expressions/idioms (I thought I’d drop
you a line …), phrasal verbs (settle in, getting on).
