Teaching guide

Write a short message for a reader

This postcard worksheet pairs a drawing on the front with a concise message on the back. Students can imagine visiting a theme or place and choose a detail worth sharing with the person receiving the postcard.

The printable is a classroom writing activity, not postage-ready stationery. Its small message space encourages students to choose words carefully.

Make the picture and message work together

Ask students to identify the recipient and purpose before they write. The illustration can show a scene or subject, while the message adds a detail, observation or short personal response.

For a longer note, try the letter writing worksheet. For an original design and description, see design your own creation.
