This Grade 2 Friendly Letter Writing Unit has EVERYTHING you need - worksheets, slides, and an engaging culminating task - to get your students excited about friendly letter writing. The unit includes a 20-day unit plan to help you fit all the useful teaching content included altogether.
This resource is completely aligned with the NEW 2023 Grade 2 Ontario Language Curriculum. Each page is linked to a specific expectation in the Ontario curriculum, which is indicated at the bottom of each page for easy teacher reference.
Worksheets: Students will enjoy completing a scaffolded workbook that teaches important letter writing skills, including the parts of a letter (greeting, body, closing, signature), writing friendly letters, writing thank you letters, postcards, stamps, envelopes, and emails. It is followed by a culminating task that is a "Birthday Party Letters" workbook that guides them through brainstorming, planning, writing and proofreading letters related to a birthday party. Students will create an invitation, birthday card, and “thank you” letter.
Slides: Slides are included to help you introduce each concept to students. Slides also include interactive components where students type or drag-and-drop their answers directly on the slide.
