When writing a letter to a close friend, write in general form or informal form. You express your thoughts as you would if you were talking ot them in person.
Dear friend,
Some of the things that happen at school or annoying. Like, we spend 8 hours in school, and half of it's wasted on things we don't need. Don't you think? A homeschooler can get the same amount of learning done in 4 hours while we sit 8 hours. I say, we cut down the useless stuff and spend only a few hours on useful stuff.
Another problem, I feel like the schools are taking away some of the kids freedom. I mean, why are kids not allowed to wear something that has a Bible verse on it? The schools are saying that's offensive, and yet there are bullies walking around school and there are hardly anything stopping them? How crazy is that? The schools should fix that.
The recess time. Why don't we get long recess times anymore? All kids need exercise, elementary or not. We should have longer recess times and have a chance to go outside. Do you agree? If you do, lets do something about it!
Goodbye, your awesome friend
