Letter Writer

AS THE NAME suggests, this program teaches users how an informal letter should be set out. In these days of word processors and other sophisticated office equipment. I tend to find that many of the rules of both formal and informal letter writing no longer apply. But this program, quite rightly, follows the standard conventions. First we are shown a sample layout, highlighting six important features of the letter. Each feature is then shown in isolation, and the pupil must select the correct multi-choice response for inserting in that part of the letter. At the end of the program, the whole letter is compiled on the screen. Aimed at the 11-12 age group, this program provides a useful aid for reinforcing letter writing skills. Letter Writer II covers all the requirements of a formal letter.
