The lesson centered on: understanding the purpose, structuring the letter, using appropriate tone and language, addressing recipients, crafting impactful openings and closings, and the importance of proofreading. The goal was to empower students with the ability to communicate professionally for various purposes, such as job inquiries, applications, information requests, and issue resolution. We are anxiously awaiting additional responses!
