Please send your location, I'm driving past your town now and would like to meet for coffee.

Directions: Write a letter according to the instructions below.

A. Name a problem in your community and how you would solve it if you had the power.

B. Put your thoughts in the form of a 'letter to the editor' of your local newspaper.

D. Your letter should be at least 150 but not more than 200 words. Be certain to use correct capitalization, punctuation, and paragraph form.

Write a letter as if you are a foreign exchange student living in America. Pretend you are writing to your family in your homeland and you must explain an American custom they know nothing at all about.

To write a convincing letter, you must examine the American custom through the eyes of an outsider. What may seem perfectly natural and logical to us may seem silly to someone from a foreign country.

Think about what foreign students must think when they are first confronted with American children dressing in rags and outlandish costumes, going out knocking on doors begging for candy, and threatening to pull a trick on the people who have no candy for them. Or what about American customs at Christmas and Thanksgiving?

Your letter must be a minimum of three paragraphs containing 5-7 sentences each.

As a part of your savings plan at work, you have been depositing $250 per quarter in a savings account earning 8% interest compounded quarterly for the last 10 years. You will retire in 15 years and want to increase your contribution each year from $1,000 to $2,000 per year, by increasing your contribution every four months from $250 to $500. Additionally, you have just inherited $10,000, which you plan to invest now to earn interest at 12% compounded annually for the next 15 years. How much money will you have in savings when you retire 15 years from now?
