Checklist
1. Ask yourself these questions after you answer the Questions for your exam.
- • Is my composition three to five paragraphs long? (It must include an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion.)
- • Did I select a topic for my composition from the list given in the instructions?
- • Did I fully expand on the topic I selected for my composition? (Example: If you chose to describe a memorable day, you should only describe one day.)
- • Does my cover letter apply to a specific job?
- • Did I include all parts of a an email cover letter?
- • Is my cover letter written in full-block style?
- • Did I answer both questions on my own, without help from the Internet?
- • Are both answers saved in one document?
- • Is my work saved as a Microsoft Word document or in Rich Text Format?
2. Write an email cover letter to submit electronically for a job application. The job can be anything you choose (it doesn’t have to be based on a real job listing), but it must be a specific position. For example, if the job is at a restaurant, you might apply to be a manager or a sous chef. Use full-block style for your email’s formatting. You can base your letter on your own qualifications, or you can make up all the details you need.
