• You must write a message of 25 words or more.  Do not count your name or the opening salutation.
• Use GOOD handwriting. You will not be penalized if you write in CAPITAL LETTERS. 
• ***Remember: you can always respond, even when you don't know what all the words mean.  

HOW TO WRITE your message:  
1.  Use the same format you see on the test. Begin with a salutation: Hello / Hi + name of the person you are writing to, followed by a comma:  Hi Bob, 
2. Start a new paragraph and begin with a CAPITAL letter.
3. Answer all 3 parts. 

4. End your letter with: See you soon. / See you later. / Let me know. / Talk to you soon. / Your friend, / Love, / Bye for now,
5. Sign your name 
6. Count the words (excluding the beginning salutation and your name).
