Writing a notice for the School Notice Board.
Step 1. Discuss why notices are put up on the noticeboard.
What kinds of 'notices' have you lately seen on the board?
How is a notice different from a letter or a descriptive paragraph?
Step 2
Suppose you have lost or found something on the campus.
What have you lost or found?
You want to write a notice about it. If you have lost something, you want it restored to you in case someone has found it. If you have found something, you want to return it to its owner.
Step 3
Write a few lines describing the object you have lost or found. Mention the pur- pose of the notice in clear terms. Also write your name, class, section and date.
Step 4
Let one member of each group read aloud the notice to the entire class. Com- pare your notice with the other notices, and make changes, if necessary, with the help of the teacher.
