Revising Opinion Letters
Once you finish a first draft of your opinion letter, put it down for awhile. Then return to it, and look for ways to improve it. That's what the revising step is all about. When you revise, you look at your letter from your reader's perspective to make sure your writing is clear and convincing. These activities will help you revise.
Revising to Use the Right Voice
Your writing voice is the way you express your ideas. For example, in a message to a classmate, you would probably use a friendly voice:
Susie,
Can you come over tonight? We can draw our maps together.
