Message to a Teacher Worksheet
Communication tip (Polite, short, signed): Order: a clear subject line → the greeting → the main message → a polite closing → your name and class. Right for a teacher: a polite greeting, your name and class, a clear subject, short, full sentences, a thank-you at the end, checking spelling first. Wrong for a teacher: “hey wassup”, messages at midnight, ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, lots of emojis, no name at all, ten messages in a row.
