Assignment 12 Letter for Your Life


Letter for Your Life

Our class has taken a field trip on a submarine - how cool! Unfortunately, due to mechanical problems, we are trapped on the ocean floor. Rescue is on the way, but there is not enough oxygen for all of us.

There will be enough oxygen, however, if I kill a few of you. It's tragic, but I have no choice. I need to sacrifice a few so that at least some of us can survive.

Your task is to write me a letter that convinces me that you should be chosen as someone who survives. Tell me what you've done in your life or perhaps what you plan to do that makes you special. Be creative - your life depends on it.

You must use perfect business letter format. Print a copy and present it to me. I will read them to the class and decide who live and who dies.
