Cam has demonstrated a thorough understanding of the features of a letter to the editor. The letters contain clear assertions of viewpoints and arguments, presented in a series of quite well-constructed, logically sequenced paragraphs. There is strong use of evidence; assertions and opinions have been well supported by examples selected from stimulus material and discussion. The summary or concluding statements are particularly persuasive. The arguments have been confidently presented and well sustained. There are some lapses in register but, generally, the voice has been sustained. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade B standard at the end of Stage 5.
