To the absent senior... (genre relfection #1)


Dear Frequently Absent Senior,

We have missed you in class these past five weeks. Your classmates have been learning crucial career related skills. We have written business letters in order to expand writing skills beyond essays and poetry. The resume unit was very productive and useful because your classmates now have a proper resume ready for any interview that they need to go to in the future. This week we are starting the interview unit, which will be exciting and informative because we will teach you the tricks to nailing any interview.

There is still time for you to come in and get caught up because this nine-week period is not over yet. This class is a requirement for you to graduate. It is also important for you to show up each day because we are trying to teach you the skills that you are going to need to know when you go out into the workforce after you graduate.

Please let me know what I can do to help you succeed in this class because I am here to help you. I would really like to see you graduate in spring with your classmates, but you need to show up to class in order for that to happen.


See you in class tomorrow,

Miss. Schmidt
