Writing a letter to a friend

When you write a letter to someone you know, it is called a personal letter. Here are some hints on how to write a personal letter.
 

1. Heading

The date, your name and address.
 

2. Greeting

Your hello.
 

3. Content

What you want to say and the reason why you are writing.
 

4. Closing

The way you end your letter.
 

5. Signature

Sign your name. This is the same as an artist signing a work of art!
 

6. P.S. (Postscript)

Found at the end of a letter. You can put something you forgot to say here.
