# Lesson 27: Write Invitations for Events

✍️ WRITING (40 Lessons) • 🟣 D. Functional & Real-Life Writing

← Back to Level 2

## Objective

I can write a simple invitation that includes who, what, when, where, and RSVP, using polite and clear sentences.

## Materials

- Pencil ✏️ and eraser
- Card or paper (or a device)
- Tracing Pad (below) for planning

Tip: Keep it friendly and clear. Readers should know exactly when and where to come and how to reply.

## Mini-lesson — What goes in an invitation?

1. Who & What: Who is invited and what is the event?
2. When: Day and time (e.g., Saturday, 3:00 p.m.).
3. Where: Place (address or room).
4. Extras: What to bring or wear.
5. RSVP: How to reply (to whom, by when).

Polite openers like “You’re invited…” and closers like “Hope to see you!” make it friendly.

Video won’t be included when printing.

## Guided Practice — Plan your invitation

Use the pad to sketch these lines for a birthday party invitation:

- When: Saturday, May 10, 3:00–5:00 p.m.
- Where: 210 Maple Street, Community Room
- Extras: Wear comfy shoes for games.
