Check understanding

  • Write a formal letter using appropriate layout, salutation, register, and sign-off conventions
  • Compose a script with stage directions, character names, and realistic dialogue

“Can your child write in different styles depending on the task — for example, a persuasive letter, a set of instructions, or a diary entry — and make each one sound appropriate?”
