SCHOOL OF ENGLISH FOR BUSINESS
MEMORANDUM

To: Mr. Kingswick, Course Coordinator
From: Barnsby Campbel
Date: 19 November, 1995
Subject: Lesson Plan for 28 November Lecture

I intend to teach memo writing in my next lecture. I plan to cover the following plans:
1. Inside Address
This is omitted in a memo. As internal communication the reason is obvious.
2. Greeting
It is mere polite to put Mr., Mrs. or Ms before and the office after the name of the recipient You may sometimes address the readers as a group.
3. Subject
This is a phrase to tell the reader what the memo is about. Sometimes only the phrase is given without the word Subject before it.
4. Body
These should be short, less than 10 lines, and concentrate on only one paragraph one idea each: Sometimes for memos with three or more paragraphs, it is advisable to begin each with a heading in capital letters to tell what the paragraph is about. Another practice is numbering the paragraphs for easy reference later on.
5. Carbon copy
This is written as c.c. for short. As in a letter, it lists the persons who are also receiving the memo.
6. Signature
Only the initial is needed, The office and name in print of the writer are omitted. In more casual memos there is no signature at all.
Any thought on my notes? Anything to add? Let me know at tea break.
