What did you do on your holiday vacation? This is usually a good theme to use for an essay assignment when kids return from vacation. But, how about writing a letter to someone in class, someone they visited, or someone they missed during vacation expressing their memories?

Using Letter Generator students can practice writing skills and learn the parts of a letter at the same time.

After students have brainstormed a bit, teachers and students can rollover a sample letter to learn its different parts.

Students can then write their own with step by step instructions and interactive fields to fill in each part of the letter!

Students choose a page border when finished and can even print if instructed to do so.
