Writing Letters

This KS2 English will test you on writing letters. When writing a letter, it is important to know whether it should be formal or informal. E-mail has overtaken the letter as the usual way to send information, news, or a longer message to someone. Fewer and fewer letters are sent every year.

It's still important, however, to know how to write letters correctly. Besides being used for more serious purposes, such as job applications, many people send letters just because they know the recipient will enjoy them. There's nothing nicer than receiving an informative, interesting and enjoyable letter from a good friend through the post.
