Writing Emails and Blog Posts
How do you “hang out” with friends? Are you physically together, or do you connect via text or video chat? You probably communicate in many different ways throughout a day.
When you need to communicate with others, you can use more formal types of writing. An email lets you speak to teachers, employers, and other adults. A blog post lets you communicate with anyone who has Internet access.
In this chapter, you’ll find an example email and blog post along with guidelines for creating your own. You can communicate awhile with adults, and then go back to hanging out with your friends.
