TYPING TASKS - LETTERS, POSTCARDS AND MEMORANDA
This book of letters, postcards and memoranda exercises has been
compiled to complement any basic typing text but in particular Typing
for Colleges for elementary and intermediate examinations and
Comprehensive Typing. It is useful supplementary material for the
teacher who prefers not to use a text as such but to teach from his, or
her, own material. It is intended to provide material for use w.ith students
taking public elementary and intermediate examinations and can be
used with non-examination students.
Although instructions are given with all exercises, all exercises have
been compiled with a number of alternatives in mind according to the
needs of students and the wishes of teachers. For example a teacher
may wish students to type a punctuated letter in open punctuation or a
fully-blocked letter in the indented style. Many exercises are linked- in
line with modern typing examinations. The range of letters, postcards
and memoranda exercises will be seen on the Contents page which
follows. It will be noted that there is ample envelope addressing practice.
Many circulars require the later insertion of material -while several of
the linked addresses are to foreign countries.
Most of the material has been presented in simple manuscript to provide
further exercises for students- that of reading a range of handwriting.
This book, together with Typing Problems and Displays and Tabulations,
completes the present series.
The author wishes to thank Margaret Hewines for editing and members
of the staff ofT P Riley School for providing the handwriting.
