Dear Reviewer:

Start by introducing the purpose of the portfolio and telling the reviewer the types of writing samples that are enclosed. Use single spacing throughout.

When identifying the timed essay, do so by its rhetorical pattern or “Title.” For instance, it could be a timed, definition pattern essay. Or it might be an in-class essay entitled “Definition of a Successful College Student.” Tell what its topic was and whether there was any quick planning done before composing. Discuss its strengths and then tell what weaknesses would be corrected if it could be revised.

When identifying the revised teacher-edited essay one, again do so by pattern, title, and type. Thus, the opening sentence might state that the second piece is a teacher-edited illustration essay entitled “The Most Useful Invention.” Describe in detail the writing process for this essay, noting any prewriting techniques used, how many drafts were written, from whom you got feedback, and what changes were made in the revising and editing process. Identify what its strengths are.

Do the same for the second teacher-edited essay. The topic sentence for this paragraph might state that it is a teacher-edited cause and effect essay entitled “The Effects of Reality Television.” Be sure to discuss the writing process and the essay’s strengths. Make note of the self-editing and peer review process.

In your final paragraph, remark on the progress of your writing skills. End the letter with a closing thought for the reader and thanks.

Sincerely,

Student’s Handwritten Signature
