Letter of Recommendation

Today's assignment is writing a business letter.

Specifically, you will be writing a letter of recommendation.  When applying for certain jobs (usually the higher paying ones) or scholarships you will be asked to provide letters of recommendation (usually 3).  These letters are written by teachers, principals, former bosses, etc.

For this assignment you will be writing a letter of recommendation about yourself (written in third person).  It needs to be typed in the proper format in Word.  After it is written you will save it in your desktop folder.  Finally, you will attach that word document to an email sent to bwalske@nmusd.us.

Your letter needs to have at least three paragraphs.  For example the paragraphs could be 1) background information  2) skills/talents  3) accomplishments.

After you have attached the word document of your letter of recommendation in an email to me, you will copy and paste the entire letter (starting with the date and ending with your name) in a blog post with the title Letter of Recommendation.
