Literacy: formal and informal letters

This is letter 1. It is a formal letter from James Saunders to the head of Lincoln City Council.

Above is letter 2. It is from Kate Rickman, to the manager of the apartment block where she lives. It is a formal letter.

The third letter is an informal letter from Danielle to her friend Abigail.

We looked at each of the three letters and found language that is formal or informal. We also found other evidence. Informal letters contain lots of chatty information. Formal letters contain only important information about the subject of the letter.
