Top 10 tips to follow when using your email
(Click on the audio link below)
1. Pick your email address wisley It's okay to have a silly email
address to use with your friends, but for things like school, pick a more
serious screen name.
2. Proofread Your Email Take the time to carefully read through your
mail before you hit "Send."
3. Use Proper Grammar and Spelling Avoid using slang like LOL or
TTYL. It's okay to use in a text message, but proper grammar and spelling
should always be used in an email.
4. Don’t use all CAPITAL letters Using all capital letters means you are
shouting. You don't want the person you are emailing to think you're angry at
them.
5. Keep It Simple Don't use crazy colors and fonts. It will make your email
harder to read.

6. Write Back Quickly Reply to an email as quickly as possible. Try not

7. Leaving A Digital Footprint Once you send an email, it's out in the
digital world forever. Even if you're angry, your emails should always be polite
and respectful.
8. Use A Proper Greeting You should always use a polite greeting like
"Dear" with the person's title and last name. For example, "Dear Mrs. Smith."
9. End Your Email With Full Name When you write to a teacher or
another adult, sign off with your full name, not a nickname, so they will know
who you are.
10. Include A Subject Line Make sure the subject line fits with what
you are talking about in the email. For example, "Question on math
homework"
