Email

From: Mr Smith

To: English class

Subject: End-of-term party

Dear English class,

Next month, we'll have our final English lesson of the term, so I'd like to organise a party for that day. What do you think of this idea? Awesome!

The talent show could be for students of all ages, or just for students over 15. Which do you think would be better?  Explain which would be better...

Can you suggest any fun activities for practising English during the partys? Suggest

Also, it would be great if everyone could bring something to the party — please let me know what you can bring. Offer 

Many thanks,

James Smith
