Writing letters

Letter writing has its own stylistic and discourse conventions and as a form, it needs to be taught (and revisited frequently!) with KS3-4 students. 

Here are some classroom resources to cover the basics, with a range of engaging topics to help to make their writing more authentic and the tasks more meaningful, from a letter of complaint to a letter from a new year 7 student to their secondary form tutor.
