students to share their activity
they have.”

“Let’s start with Ms. Avelino.”

Avelino: “Ma’am, I have

decided to write a letter for
my childhood friend Nina who
I never have seen for 10
years since high school
graduation.”

“Alright. So, your letter will be

about asking your friend if she’s
doing well since you have never
seen him for 10 years. That’s a
good idea, Ms. Avelino.”

“How about Mr. Alcantara?”

Alcantara: “I will be writing an

invitation for my Aunt to come
on my graduation day.”

“Very good. That’s another idea

or content to write on.”

a letter to congratulate my
sister on states who will be
having a twin.”

“Wow! Congratulations.”

“Alright. Each of you came up

with the topic/content to write for
your letter. You have selected
people whom you will write to. But
before further writing the letter
let’s have a discussion first.”

Discussion “Now let’s discuss our topic for

today which is about Informal
Letter.”

“Kindly read Ms. Chua.”

(Ms. Chua reading the text on
ppt)

“When we say informal letter also

known as a personal letter, this
writing is to express your feelings
and emotions to someone either
to your parents, friends, family,
and even your boy/girlfriend. Just
like what you have presented a
while back it is intended for
congratulating, inviting, asking
your friends if how well they are
doing, and more.”

“But in writing it there must be a

format to follow with. Now please
read it again for me, Mr. Martinez”
 (Mr. Martinez reading the text
on ppt)

“In here, you need to put your

address as a writer including the Chua: “Why do we need to
street number, barangay, put that ma’am?”
municipality, and province, the
exact address to be specific.”

“So that your receiver will know

where to send his/her response to
the letter you gave.”

“Now, let’s have another part of

the letter.”

(The whole class reading it in

the chorus)

“You need to put the date when

you wrote the letter and
remember to put a comma after
the month.”

(Mr. Cundangan reading the

ppt)
“Next, we have the salutation.
Please read Mr. Cundangan.”
“A salutation is greetings to the
person whom you're writing. It
depends on what is your relations
to that person and usually, it
starts with Dear/My Dear. At the
end of the greetings, there would
be a comma and placed it on the
left side of the paper after the
address and date.” Everyone: “Yes, Ms. Paras.”

“Are you still listening to class?”

“Alright. Let’s proceed with the

next part of the letter.”

(The whole class reading it in

the chorus)

“It is where you will start your

body. Usually, it is a response to
the letter you received. Saying
thank you or hoping for
something.”

“Now, the main part of the letter.

(Ms. Chua reading the ppt)

“This is where you write all the

things you have or need to say to
the person you are writing to. It
can be two or three paragraphs
and it has space for each
paragraph.”

(Laus reading the ppt)

 “The end of the body where you
have to state your wish and
hopes to the person.”

(Valdez reading the text)

“This is the second to the last

part. There is comma also at the
end of it.”

“Lastly, the name of the sender”

“Of course, the writer will write

his/her name so that the receiver
