ELAGSE6W1d.
Read the draft of a letter to the school newspaper.
Dear Editor,
I appreciate the article you printed in the March newspaper about school clubs and extracurriculars. It is important to highlight ways students can become more involved in school activities. Not everyone is tuned in to whatever’s going on, right? Your proposal, to host an open house for clubs and extracurriculars, makes a lot of sense. That way, students are not depending on sheer luck or knowing the “right” person to get into a club or activity. Students can see what’s available, talk to others who are involved, and then decide for themselves if they want to join.
Which revision would maintain the formal style of the letter?
DOK 2
Change sentence 1 to "I support your March article about clubs and extra curricular activities."
Change sentence 2 to "It really important to show students ways they can do more things at school"
Change sentence 3 to "Not all students are fully aware of the range of activities they can join"
Change sentence 4 to "Your open house proposal of an open house for clubs is a very good idea."
