We started the first draft of a letter. First draft and final copy are to be finished for homework. First draft recommendations: Skip lines. (This makes it easier to edit.) Make corrections in a different color so corrections stand out.
Final copy may be typed. Font size no smaller than 12. Font style must be easy to read. I prefer Times New Roman.
Directions are as follows:

Final copy
Note: Students should have a multi-subject notebook for class in addition to the hardcover composition book. The composition notebook is only for journal entries. The other will be used for class notes, vocabulary, spelling and first drafts.
