The Correspondant

Your job is to write a friendly letter to one of the major characters in the section of the book that you are reading. You can write the letter as yourself or as another character in the book. Write the letter on Microsoft word and then post it. Remember to use spell check.

Things to keep in mind:

• Are there questions that you want to ask?
• Be specific about where the character is and who you are.
• Do they speak a certain way?

Display your letter as a blog post.
Here is a link to a page with letter format.

Other ideas:

• You can write an interview with a main character and a news reporter or TV reporter. You could even film an interview with a FLIP camera.
• You can write a “Dear Abby” letter where a character is asking for help, and then you can write them back telling them what to do!
• Write a friendly “email”
