Letter Writing

-->

In Room 3, we have been learning how to write letters.  A letter needs the following things:

·       A salutation

·       An opening sentence

·       A closing sentence

·       An ending eg From …..

·       An addressed envelope

Below are a selection of letters that some of us wrote to Santa.  The names of the’ authors’ will not be printed so you may have to ask us if we wrote any of these published letters.

To Santa

How are you feeling?  I will leave some cookies out for you.  Can I please have an iPod because I helped my Dad plant potatoes?

From ???????

To Santa

I hope you are well this year because it has been very cold this year.  Please may I have a new Leap pad 2?  I would like to know how many elves are there?  And how many reindeer do you have?  How do your reindeer fly?  Do they have wings or do they use their legs?  How do your elves make all the toys in time?  Here is a joke for you - what do elves first learn at school?  The elphabet.  I will leave you 2 cookies and one glass of milk.  We will leave the reindeer some carrots.

Love from …………

Dear Santa,

How does a reindeer fly without wings?  How does Rudolph’s nose glow?  Please can I have a butterfly pillow pet because I have been nice to my friend’s at school?   I will leave you a piece of celery, and for the reindeer a muffin and a glass of milk.  Haha – just kidding.

Dear Santa,

How are you?  Are you busy making toys?  This year I have been very good at listening to my Mum.  Can I please have a M.G.P?  How many elves do you have?  I will leave you a drink of milk and a carrot for the reindeer.

From ………..

Dear Santa,

How many elves do you have?  Does Rudolph’s nose glow?  I have been a good girl this year.  Can I please have an M.G.P?  It is a type of scooter.  I will leave you a glass of milk and some carrots for the reindeer.  I don’t believe you deliver presents in one night, I think two nights.  Be careful of my cat, he might meow at you.

Love from …….

PS What does an elf learn first?  The Elphabet.  Haha – just a joke!

Dear Santa

How do your reindeer fly without wings and how many elves are there?  How many reindeer are there?  How do you get through my chimney because you look kind of fat, because you eat a lot of cookies and you drink all of my milk?  Be careful because my chickens might peck you.  Don’t eat any eggs!  If you see any eggs put them in the fridge please.  Please can I have an M.G.P scooter because I have to get my brother out of bed.
