Exercise 1 – Letter to aunt describing achievements (Sample)
12/56 Lotus Apartments  
MG Road, Pune  
20 January 2026  

Dear Aunty,  
I hope you are doing well. I wanted to share some exciting achievements from this year. I scored the highest marks in Math and Science, and I was selected for the school debate team. Our team even won second place in the inter-school competition!  
I also joined the music club and learned to play two new songs on the keyboard. It has been a wonderful year, and I am proud of how much I have grown.  
Please write back soon.  
Yours lovingly,  
Rhea  

Exercise 2 – Letter describing a funny incident (Sample)
Dear Arjun,  
You won’t believe what happened in school yesterday! During assembly, our class monitor accidentally sneezed so loudly that everyone turned at once—and he dropped all the attendance sheets. Papers went flying everywhere! Even the principal laughed.  
It was one of the funniest moments of the week. I wish you had been there to see it.  
Write soon,  
Kabir  

Exercise 3 – Letter describing a science experiment (Sample)
Dear Meera,  
I want to tell you about the science experiment we performed in class today. We made a mini volcano using baking soda, vinegar, and red food colour. When we mixed them, the mixture bubbled up and overflowed just like real lava.  
Our teacher explained how the reaction happens, and it was fascinating to watch. I think science is becoming my favourite subject!  
Lots of love,  
Aarav  

Exercise 4 – Letter to elder sister about a new hobby (Sample)
Dear Diya,  
I hope your college studies are going well. I recently started a new hobby—sketching. I practise every evening, and I’ve already drawn landscapes, animals, and even a few portraits. Watching online tutorials has helped me improve quickly.  
Next time you visit, I will show you my sketchbook.  
Love,  
Tara  

Exercise 5 – Letter to cousin describing a memorable family trip (Sample)
Dear Zoya,  
Last month, we went on a memorable trip to Kerala. We stayed in a houseboat, watched beautiful sunsets, and saw coconut trees everywhere. My favourite part was the boat ride through the backwaters—it felt peaceful and magical.  
We also tried delicious local food and visited a spice garden. It was one of the best family trips we’ve ever had.  
Hope you’re doing well.  
Yours lovingly,  
Nikhil
