Writing Lessons
Lots of English language students struggle with their writing. I've found that using letters or emails as part of a weekly task either at home or in class can greatly benefit students. Below are links to letters we have used with our Entry 2, Entry 3 and Level 1 ESOL students in preparation for Cambridge ESOL Exams.
Each text can be marked using the standard Cambridge ESOL points system.
6 points for text and meaning
6 points for sentences and general grammar
3 points for words, spelling and punctuation
This gives a total of fifteen marks and allows students to clearly see which area of their writing needs working on.
All these letters have been saved in 'word' meaning that they can be changed, simplified, or altered in anyway.
