This resource is completely aligned with the NEW 2023 Grade 8 Ontario Language Curriculum. Each page is linked to a specific expectation in the Ontario curriculum, which is indicated at the bottom of each page for easy teacher reference.

Worksheets: Students will enjoy completing a scaffolded workbook that teaches important business letter writing skills, like identifying purpose, topic, and audience, proper formatting and organization, and addressing envelopes. Students will complete a structured culminating task called “Business Letter Assignment” which guides them through writing a formal, typed business letter in blocking format.

Slides: Slides are included to help you introduce each concept to students. Slides also include interactive components where students type their answers directly on the slide.
