pwT 2.3 Formal Communication: Asking for Permission

             Writing: Students can write sentences with correct subject-verb agreement.

             Language Function: Students produce and present a simple written or oral product.
             Sample: Writing a letter/email to ask for permission at school

             Every letter we write has many parts. Look at the letter that is written below.

             Label all the parts. There is date, on the right, address on the left, a greeting
             under the address, the body of the letter below that, a closing and signature on the

             right side. First the letter is written in English. Then the same letter will be
             translated in Punjabi.

                      address                                                  March 4, 2019     Date

                      Reaspected Teacher,

                             I am writing to ask permission from you. The day we have the final test,
                      I will not be at school. Can I please take the test on the Sunday before the

                      final date?
                             I hope you will grant me the permission.

                                                                               With Respect,       closing and
                                                                               Pushpinder Kaur     signature

             The same letter in Punjabi: When we write the date in Punjabi, we will write the date

             first, then month and then the year. Rest all is the same as the English letter.
