Dear Mr. Santa Claus,
My name is Crystal Wonderland and I’m excited to apply for a position at the North Pole. I would like to apply for the job as Decorator Elf .
I believe I would be excellent at this job because I enjoy making places look beautiful . I would also work hard and enjoy my time decorating with Christmas decorations at the North Pole .
I would make 3-D snowflakes with sparkles and glitter. The North Pole would look like a Christmas Winterland. I would make pretty red and green chain garlands. I would decorate the houses at the North Pole from the inside and outside.
The outside of the houses I would decorate with small snowflake lights and with bright glittery silver lights around the house. Inside the houses I would hang up garland with red glitter and beautiful large red bows on the fireplace hung with stockings. On the windows I would put Christmas window clings and red and green bells on Christmas trees.
My friend Noelle (also known as Heidi) works at the North Pole as an elf designer. Noelle creates glittery bells with snowflakes, trees and wrapping paper for presents. Noelle and I are great friends and we would work well toegether. I would decorate the Christmas wrapping paper that my friend Holly (also known as Tina) who wraps the gifts at the North Pole. The children will definitely be excited to open the beautifully wrapped and decorated gifts given to them by Santa Claus’ elves.
Thank you for taking the time to consider me for the job as Decorator Elf. If I get the job as Decorator Elf I would be a hard worker and wonderful elf.
Hire me because I follow directions and work well with others and I have awesome decorating skills.
Sincerely,
Crystal Wonderland
Great job, Sara! Your letter as Decorator Elf was well done. You included descriptive details explaining how you would turn the North Pole into a Winter Wonderland. Your description of glitter, sparkles, red and green chain garlands, and snowflakes help the reader envision what the North Pole would look like if you were hired as Decorator Elf. It was a great idea to include you would work well with Designer Elf, Noelle and Gift Wrapping Elf, Holly. This shows you have terrific teamwork skills!
You need to work on slowing down and ensuring your rough draft contains strategies discussed in class such as: punctuation, capitals, adjectives, and correct grammar. Continue working on editing and revising your work on your own.
Your elf turned out great as well! I know you were excited with your finished product. It is great to see such enthusiasm!
Congratulations on being hired as Decorator Elf at the North Pole! 🙂
