​Students: Have fun writing letters! Tell your friends what you've been up to. Ask how they are. Ask questions so they can answer them when they write back to you. You could even send each other drawings, word searches, math problems, or activities to do and send back.

Try to write to a few different friends on the list. A fun challenge would be to write to them all! Also remember that if a friend writes to you, you should try to write back to them within two or three days. Just like a text, message, or phone call you don't want to leave them hanging and wondering if you got their note. Remember that it can take a couple of days for a letter to arrive in the mail too.

Make sure you use your neatest handwriting. You might even want to do a rough draft first. Don’t forget your uppercase letters to start a sentence or proper noun (specific name of something), and that you use punctuation to end your sentences. Use your conjunctions and commas to list things or break up a sentence. You can practice putting commas and uppercase letters on the envelope too.

I have included a bunch of writing template paper for you to choose from as you write to the friends involved, or even family members! Click on the arrow in the top right corner of the template that you want to open. You will be directed to a new tab where you can print or download the template. You can also use your own paper or note cards if you want. Have so much fun :)
