Post-writingDear Miss Li, I am writing to offer some suggestions on how to improve some parts of our school life.First, I would like to suggest that we should have a longer lunch break. Some students eat slowly and don’t get enough time to have a rest before the next class. A longer break will give us more time to relax. This will help us stay healthy. Second, I think we should go on more school trips to make our learning more interesting. For example, we could visit science museums to see interesting shows. These trips would help us learn new things.SampleFinally, I hope we can add more adventure books to the library. They are popular among students and can help us develop creativity and a love of reading. I hope you find my suggestions helpful and consider improving the school life in some of these ways. I am looking forward to seeing changes. Yours sincerely, Li Hua Self-assessmentPeer assessmentHomework Revise your suggestion letter after class and make a presentation in the next period.
