Please write a letter to someone in your life expressing gratitude. Describe the things about that person you appreciate and/or the things they do for you and others. It might be that this person is consistently kind to you, helps you do new things, has been there for you when you are sad, or that the person helps others in the world by doing big work in our community. The person doesn’t have to be someone you know personally. Be as specific as you can about why you are thankful for the person and how you will honor the person’s good work by doing your own good work.
Make sure your letter is neat, has correct spelling, capital letters at the beginning of each sentence and for all proper nouns, and that you have used punctuation where needed. Remember that letters have a date in the upper right hand corner, a greeting with the person’s name, and that you sign the letter at the bottom.
You may choose to send your letter yourself and turn in a copy, or you may bring the letter and an address to school and we can help you send it. You must mail your letter. Please choose a person to write to that doesn’t live in your home so that your letter can be a surprise.
