Escribe el cuerpo: cuenta algo sobre ti, sobre tu escuela o un plan, con oraciones cortas: "Last week I went to the park with my family. It was fun! We played soccer and ate ice cream."
Escribe el cierre: pide una respuesta, por ejemplo: "Please write back soon. I want to know about your trip."
Cierra con una despedida y tu firma: "Sincerely, Your friend Ana."
Finalmente, dobla la carta, ponla en un sobre, pega un sello y envíala por correo.

A letter: Do you know what a letter is?

Imagine a letter is like a special note you write to your friend or family when they're not with you. You write it on a piece of paper, put it in a special paper cover called an envelope, and then put a stamp on it. The letter goes on a little adventure and travels to your friend or family member. When it gets there, they open it and read your message. They might even send you a letter back. It's like talking to them, but with paper and not in person. It's a cool way to stay in touch when you can't see each other!

Check the parts of a letter and write one to your best friend on a piece of paper. Use short sentences and express your ideas. When you finish, put it in an envelope and send it to your friend. Wait for the response. Use known structures and familiar vocabulary.
