1. What is your purpose for writing a letter? What do you hope will happen as a result?

2. Who is your audience? What is your relationship to those people?

3. What issue do you want to explore? Why should this issue concern us on a societal level?

I want to write a letter to raise awareness about climate change and encourage my school to take action. My purpose is to inspire people to make small changes. I hope that by writing this letter, our school will start a composting program or hold a climate awareness week.

My audience will be the principal, teachers, and students at school. I also want to connect my personal experience growing up in Los Angeles, where climate change has caused wildfires and extreme heat, making it clear that this is an issue for everyone, no matter where they live.

I want to explore the issue of climate change because it’s affecting everyone on the planet. Rising temperatures, stronger storms, and melting ice are problems we’re all going to face, and we can’t ignore them. As a society, we need to take this seriously because it’s about protecting our future and the planet we call home.

1. My purpose for writing this letter is so that racial profiling is seen as a bigger issue, taken more seriously, Police are given harsher punishments when committing it, and Police can see how it affects the black community

2. My audience is police around the world.

3. I want to explore how many cases include racial profiling. This is an issue in society because people are being wrongly imprisoned and shot and killed because of the color of their skin.

1. I am writing this letter to raise awareness towards teen girls mental health. I hope that this encourages people to help teens that see themself in a bad way or are depressed.

2. My audience is social platforms and parents. I am also telling about my personal experience with bad body image towards myself. Because I often compare my size to my peers and friends. To show that I can understand how some of these teen girls feel who have poor body image of themselves.

3. I want to explore the issue of teen girls mental health because I feel like it is not talked about enough and most times ignored. This should concern us because the numbers of suicidal deaths of teen girls have increased substantially over the years. And a lot of these suicidal deaths are caused by teen girls not thinking that they are enough. So social platforms and parents need to take this seriously because this could be happening to someone you know or your own child. We should all check on our friends and family or maybe even people we don't know to make sure that they are okay.

1. My purpose for writing this letter is so that more people may know about the many discriminative bills that are being written by extremist lawmakers.

2. My audience is the US senators and the queer people in America, so that they may know of the issues that are arising.

3. I want to explore the issue of discriminative laws that are being enacted in the US, that are targeting LBGTQ people. This will affect around, if not more, 13.9 million people. Those are millions of people having their rights taken away, one by one, law by law. I am sure that you are sick of hearing people blabber on about equality and discrimination in the U.S by now, but this is real. This is real, and it is being written into history as we speak.

Over 520 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have been introduced in state legislatures.

220 bills specifically target transgender and non-binary people.

And 70 anti-LGBTQ laws have been enacted so far this year.

I put in anonymous for a reason, and I'd prefer to keep it that way

I suggest you take a look at https://www.aclu.org/legislative-attacks-on-lgbtq-rights-2025?state= for more info

Alana- Due dates for homework need to get easy.

# data[].attributes.body
1. My reason for writing this letter is because due dates are a HUGE issue for me and I couldn't keep track of it. I hope this will make teachers understand how I feel about it and what I want from them.

2. My audience is teachers who keep making due dates too difficult, it makes me angry. I really compare myself with homework which gets hard for me because of the due dates.

3. I want teachers to know this and this is serious. I want them to know why I couldn't finish my homework and explain a deal with this issue. I want them to make due dates easy so I can have more time finishing up on it and I won't get things undone anymore

1. My reason for writing this letter is so that people who know about ocean pollution will actually TAKE ACTION! I want people to feel for the sea creatures being affected by our mistake. I want people to read this letter and realise just how much they can do to help!

2. My audience is all of the people who need to be informed and be a part of the soulution.

3. I want to explore ocean pollution all over the world. We should be concerned about this. We are catching and eating fish that have our plastic pollution in them! Also, every year more and more sea life die because they get stuck in our plastic or eat too much of it. If our seafood reasources run out, we only have ourselves to blame!

We have always had phones and technology, but today it has gone too far. Before, you could call someone, and that’s probably all you used your phone for. But now, young kids—some even younger than me—use their phones and walk around like zombies. I look at their screens and ask them, “What are you doing?” and all I get is some mumbled nonsense. They’re playing Block Blast when they could be outside enjoying the beautiful world and doing things they’ve never done before.

At home, kids play Block Blast even though they have a $500 Xbox in their room. It doesn’t make sense. I know phones are helpful in different ways—like calling people, and you can text them if you can’t call someone. There are so many useful things you can do with a phone. But instead, people stare at their screens, scrolling through TikTok, just to see if they got any likes. And if they don’t, oh no—they get angry.

Kids watch TikTok, but there’s only mindless stuff on that app. All the educational content is shown to Chinese kids. And since China owns TikTok, it only allows educational content for their kids and puts all the mindless stuff to the U.S. because they want American kids to be dumb while their kids get smarter.

Maybe schools should teach about how things work in the digital world so that they are more informed and become concerned for themselves, maybe then things can change ..

1. Our purpose for writing this is to inform people and try to make a change to these outrageous prices. People who have lived their whole lives in Hawaii have to move away from here because of the prices of homes here.

2. My audience for this writing is anyone interested, house companies, and mainly Governor, Josh Green.

3. The average price of a house in 2025 is 1.5 Million Dollars. That is a lot of money. Many people are going homeless because of no home mostly because they can't pay it off. I would like this to change. Once there are more and more homeless the streets get cluttered up by their tents and many of the items that they have.

1. Car taxes are getting way too expensive, becoming a burden for many drivers. Owning a car is already costly with fuel, insurance, and maintenance, but high taxes make it even worse. Many people rely on their vehicles for work and daily life, yet the rising costs make it harder to afford. It’s time to raise awareness and push for fairer car tax policies. We shouldn’t have to break the bank just to own and drive a car!

2. My audience is the car company around the world.

3. I want to explore on how much people don't have cars because the pieces are to high

# data[].attributes.body
1. I am writing this letter to ask for no homework. I hope that as a result we will get no or at leat less homework.

2. My audience would be the teachers who give 2-3 assignments per class. Also, the DOE to make it so we don't get so much homework.

3. I want the teachers to understand why I'm always tired and staying late to do the homework THEY gave. This should concern teachers because Teens need a lot of sleep, and should be able to do other stuff for fun too.

1. Our purpose in writing this is to warn people with animals and people who are messing with animals to be careful and treat them well. Many animals around the world are being abused by their owners or some random person.

3. We want to tell people all over the world to be careful with there pets and to take care of them well

2. My audience is the president and users of TikTok. The relationship that we have with these people is that many of them get hurt doing these hurtful trends.

1. my reason for writing this letter is to expose the unfair parts of the justice system. i hope that the Supreme Court will fix their ways and be fair to everyone.

2. my audience is the supreme court. i have negative opinions on them due to their unfairness to people.

3. I want to shed some light on how the Supreme Court favors some people over others, gives sentences that should be longer/shorter, and they let terrible people off the hook.

1. My purpose for writing this letter is spreading awareness to pet owners on the topic of backyard breeders and unhealthy environments pets can come from. Hopefully it will convince people to stop supporting backyard breeding.

2. My audience is any pet owner is general. I don't really have a relationship with them.

3. I want to explore the issue of unhealthy environments pets come from and how to possibly stop it. It should concern people because if animals come from an unhealthy place then it can lead to being traumatized and have health issues.

1. the purpose for this letter is to convince people to bring recess into middle school. I hope that after reading this letter then school(s) will consider bringing back recess for middle schoolers.

2. my audience for this letter is the teachers and staff in my school because these are the people with the authority to bring recess into our school routine.

3. my issue is that schools end recess at middle school and that we should continue to have recess through middle school and not just elementary school. we should be concerned because recess is at time to socialize and be with friends. Many kids today don't know how to act around other people because they can't socialize. recess is a perfect solution to fix this problem.

1. I want to write a letter to people to be aware that texting while driving is dangerous and should be illegal. I hope that it does end up, perhaps in the future, illegal.

2. My audience is The Hawaii State Legislature and overall drivers. I don't know the Hawaii State Legislature personally. But I have parents, grandparents, and uncles/aunties who drive.

3. The issue? Texting while driving is dangerous for you and the drivers around you. About 400 fatal crashes happen due to this. What if this was your sibling, your parent? It's not okay to stake someone's life off of a simple text that could wait until you're parked.

1. I am writing this letter to help raise more awareness about how keeping orcas in small tank not suitable for their size is inhumane. I hope that this can stop orcas getting captured and breaded in captivity. So that all orcas can be free and live in the wild.

2. My audience is all SeaWorld parks in the US, and marine parks around the world. So that they can realize themselves how harmful it actually is to keep these sea-bound animals in small concrete enclosures.

3. I want to explore the issue of keeping orcas in captivity along with the mistreatment that follows. Keeping animals in captivity and exploiting them is never humane. As a society we should learn that keeping animals in enclosures that can barely fit their size is torture. How would you feel if you were kept in a small concrete tank for 14 hours everyday? We need to put an end to orcas in captivity so that they can live freely in open water with their families.

1. We're writing this letter to raise awareness about the harmful effects social media has on kids under 12, and to encourage action to stop them from using it. We hope that as a result, we’ll see changes, like stricter rules or even banning social media for younger kids.

2. Our target audience is parents, teachers, and lawmakers who have the power to make decisions that affect kids lives.

3. The issue we want to explore is how social media negatively impacts mental health, self-esteem, and overall well-being in children, leading to problems like anxiety and unhealthy habits. This is something we should all care about because it affects the future of our society, and we need to protect the next generation from growing up with these harmful influences.

2. My audience for this open letter is anyone also wanting to stop ICE from deporting immigrants, and the ICE itself

3. I want to explore in the issue of Trump and the ICE deporting immigrants. This should concern us because many families are being ripped apart - children being snatched from schools and churches. Immigrants that are doctors helping your sick family are also being deported along with the immigrant farmers producing your food and more.

1. My purpose in writing this letter is to let people know that when buying products or pieces of art, whether music, a painting, or food, you must separate the art from the artist and instead appreciate and focus on the value of the product rather than the flaws in the artist.

2. My audience is mostly everyone but mostly targeting my sister or people like my sister because she does not listen to certain people's music just because of the person they are and not because she doesn't like the music or that she has given it a try and appreciate it for the art of it.

3. I want to explore music artists and influencers specifically. This should concern us because it might create a closed-off side of people because of their beliefs or ideas. This is already happening with people like my sister, who are not open enough to see the other person's side of life just because of who they are or are associated with.

2. Our audience is the people who make the laws which is Congress. My relationship with these people is with my cousins and families and their children who suffer from this.

3. The issue we want to explore is school shootings and gun violence in schools. This should concern people because what if that was your child or niece or nephew or someone you were related to? You would feel terrible and that's exactly how those families feel.

1. Our purpose for writing this letter is because we want the people to decide on building things as a community and not based on the upper classes' decisions. I hope that the people will listen to us from now on and make us apart of the government's decisions and stop listening to rich people's demands.

2. Our audience is anyone that makes the decisions or the one that tells the people to make buildings. Our relationship with the government is by being in their community.

3. My issue is that the government is leaving the rich people in charge of making rules or letting them call in shots for making buildings without our community's consent. This is concerning us on a societal level right now because they were thinking of taking down our library in Wahiawa and moving it somewhere else in Wahiawa, so that the people can use that area as a parking lot, I don't know what for exactly though.

2. Our audience is Governor Josh Green. We know him because he is the governor of our state, we are trying to give him this letter because he makes the laws of Hawaii.

3. I want to know why people text on their phones on the road, trying to multi-task. We should be concerned about this because many accidents are caused by people texting or calling on the road.

2. My audience is homeowners, big companies, and whoever raising the prices.

3. I want to explore the issue of the rise of prices I want to learn why they do it, is it because of greed, or is it because they have to? I think this issue should concern people because it can happen to anyone, if any natural disaster were to happen you could lose everything and have to go through what many others are going through right now with the LA fires.

1. My reason for writing this is that Vail Resorts has made it almost impossible for my family to go on a snowboarding trip because of how expensive their prices are, and I am sure many others are in the same situation as my family.

2. My audience for this topic is any snowboarder/skier in the middle or lower class who wants to do something about these outrageous prices.

3. The average price for an adult at Park City, which is owned by Vail, is $278 U.S.D. This is absurd! These prices make it so a family of three would spend about $700 a day to ski at this resort. I want to change that and make resorts more affordable to families so everyone can enjoy the sport.

We are writing about social media because it can do a lot of things.

Social media is good in all but it can also be bad, kids are now on social media such as TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and more.

And we all know there are teenagers, adults, and KIDS on there, so why post stuff inappropriate? Not just inappropriate stuff, why post stuff about OTHER people, to make them insecure? People shouldn't post weird or inappropriate stuff because there are now kids on social media and you could get arrested. So please people out there who are doing that please stop or else it's going to turn into a huge problem for everyone.

1. I'm writing this because housing prices skyrocketing is a significant issue for many people, especially those looking to buy their first home or even renters facing higher costs. Writing about it can help shine a light on how it's affecting everyday people, making others aware of the challenges many are facing

2. My audience is the governor josh green and housing company's

3. As housing prices continue to rise, many people are unable to afford homes, making it increasingly difficult to achieve homeownership. The higher prices lead to larger down payments and higher monthly mortgage costs, which many individuals simply can’t afford, especially when wages aren’t keeping up with the increase in housing costs. The limited availability of affordable homes means that even if people manage to save for a down payment, they still struggle to find something within their budget. This situation forces many people into renting, which also comes with its own high costs, preventing them from saving or investing in a home. Ultimately, the soaring prices create a significant barrier to homeownership, excluding large segments of the population, particularly first-time buyers and low- to middle-income families, from the opportunity to own a home and build long-term financial stability

3. I want teachers to understand how much homework they give and like some kids stay up so late doing their homework and don't have enough sleep and kids get so stuck on so much homework they can't even do their daily things and like they should be able to go out and have fun not stay in and do homework.

1. I am writing this because I want people to know that it can take a while to realize that you can be happy when you succeed.

2. I hope that people can realize being happy in life is a success. Owning your mind and taking care of your mental health is important to worry about, if you master that then you have achieved mental success. Now if you are mentally stable then you can do anything.

3. My audience is anyone who needs to hear it. If everyone can do this then everyone will be at peace.

4. I don't have emotional attachments to anyone or anything, but if it comes to people wanting to help themselves become better for their mental health then I would love that.

5. The issue I want to explore is whether we can help each other at school and improve people's mental health.

6. This should concern us because the reason people are so angry all the time or mean is because they don't have someone to talk to or they don't have someone they can trust to help them become a better person.
